Self Improvement Calm and Creativivity

Self Improvement in a creative, calm and ordered environment.

Creativity thrives in a calm mind and an ordered environment. Have you ever thought that being creative means rolling in the chaos created in the moment of complete madness; hyperventilating because your heart is racing outside your body; your eyes rolling in your head like the red eyes of a man being chased in the jungle by a lion; or worse still looking dishevelled because of lack of attention to personal health? You need to know that there are ingredients that need to be present to allow you to be creative. In this article we will be sharing ideas on how to be creative in an ordered environment.

There seems to be a need to learn how to handle the surge of ideas that sometimes proves to be the initial stage of creativity. This stage is a vital stage but needs to be handled with an awareness that the fact that the ideas are being recorded in an uncontrolled way through mind map; writing lists; recording dreams; allowing the mind to make innumerable links through questioning; collecting ideas and putting them together in a big pot, does not mean the absence of order.

Although it is important to avoid being in a hurry to escape from this stage because your ideas need to see the light of day, you need to think of ways of making this stage calm and easy on yourself. You might be thinking that staying at this level is killing your creativity because you are not actually involved in the activities that will take you forward. Do not panic, you are doing a great job. Your mind needs to be emptied of all the great ideas that are running through your head like a runaway train so write them down.

Let me give you a peek into my experience at this stage. I find that the ideas are oozing out of me so fast that the muscles in my hands cannot keep up, so I tend to scribble and sometimes find it difficult . I am slowly learning to tell myself to slow down and to remember that creativity is at its best in a controlled and ordered environment.

Have you noticed that the computer is a tool that allows you to type very fast if you are willing to press each key on the keyboard one at a time? If you choose not to do this, you will have to spend essential time editing your work. The next time you catch yourself being pushed along without control over your mind, speak to yourself, words that reassure you that you are aware of what is happening and that you are determined to remain calm and controlled.

You might say something like this to yourself- “———- , thanks for all those ideas but at the moment I need to calm down so that I record the ideas calmly and in an ordered environment.” Do not forget to put your name in the space.
Enjoy your journey in self development.

    “I find that the ideas are oozing out of me so fast that the muscles in my hands cannot keep up”

    I love this phrase – fantastic playful and meaningful, makes you think and its so simplistic and sounds almost rude but isn’t! LOVE IT!

    as you might guess from my reaction I too have so many ideas
    however I’m not sure that I agree with the next phrase…
    remember that creativity is at its best in a controlled and ordered environment.
    Some of my greatest ideas happen when I’m near panic and under pressure, and you will find a lot of creative ideas especially in the business world happen when they are under immense pressure… the point is to be focused…
    I agree slowing down is one way to intentionally focus however its not the only way!

    eg its a great idea to climb a tree to escape a vicious animal like a lion(I’m assuming they cant climb – having only met one I can’t guarantee this) but when they are chasing you its not a good idea to slow down!

    With writing as I’m sure you’ve come across or will especially with “the book” editing is a massively important step but I take your point about hitting the keys in the right order, will enable you (hopefully) to take less editing time

    with your point of being controlled and calm!(which I totaly agree with)
    it can be very important to make a decision before you are in the situation,
    I remember this by the phrase train hard, fight easy.
    Not sure who thought that one up first (maybe the army .us or .uk? )

    Anyway hope thats food for thought!
