The shift to radical creativity

The beauty of life is in the living. And living fully allows us to color with whatever crayon or emotion we ourselves choose to experiment with.

But today, success is a story told by some force outside of ourselves of what we must achieve while we are here. What no one tells us as kids is that life is messy and growing up is over rated.

We have created and brought apps into our lives that unconsciously instruct us on how we should live our lives. We allow them to track our goals, achievements and even our deep moments of silence and meditation. We celebrate every time we hit the daily goal of 10,000 steps without always fully feeling into our physical body. There’s always some goal that we must achieve with clear intentions but what if this is a limiting belief that keeps us stuck? But who dare question the accepted way of life?

What’s happening behind many closed doors today is a realization that there’s more to life than we were led to believe. I am hearing more and more people admitting that their way of life is “destroying my soul.” There are more people at very senior levels of organizations who are choosing to leave because they no longer feel this need to succeed when their soul is weeping for meaning and a way to help people.
