Mysterious Creativity Sparkles its Magic on Unhurried Minds
If we could learn from the past examples
I’m an invisible, non-intrusive, unmagical force. I never tolerated lazy, indecisive, and impatient clients. I’m highly prized, extremely rare, and extraordinarily exquisite.
I’ve created geniuses in every imaginable field the human mind has worked on. I’ve led missions to Mars and beyond. I’ve guided expeditions to the unknown horizons of the universe. I’ve motivated sane, mindful, and diligent minds for the last five thousand years, if not more.
The world’s wonders, from the Pyramids of Giza, Egypt, the Great Wall, China, Machu Picchu, Peru, Angwar Wat, Cambodia, and the Taj Mahal, India, are examples of my illustrious achievements.
Without my constant and consistent support, the world would have never gotten The Canterbury Tales (Geoffroy Chaucer), The First Folio (William Shakespeare), War and Peace (Leo Tolstoy), A Tale of Two Cities (Charles Dickens), and One Hundred Years of Solitude (Gabriel Garcia Marquez).
This world would have been a barren place without the philosophical minds like Socrates, Avicenna, Averroes, Confucius, Buddha, and Michel Foucault. They would have never extrapolated the mysteries of the mind without me and never had the success of enlightening humankind.
All artistic pursuits would have been lost in the wilderness if I hadn’t come to their rescue so the world could have geniuses like Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Pablo Picasso, Vincent Van Gogh, and Claude Monet. Who would have floored the visitors in the museums and galleries around the globe if these artists hadn’t approached me?
Musical giants have my guidance to spellbind their audiences from the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, and John Elton. Everyone in the population of seven billion plus knows their music, romances with their songs, and dances to their tunes.
Individuals endowed with athletic capabilities would have never seen success at an unprecedented scale if I hadn’t propelled them to greatness. Soccer without Pele and Lionel Messi, Tennis without Serena Williams, Hockey without Wayne Gretzky, and Cricket without Kapil Dev are unimaginable.
Inventors like Thomas Edison, Graham Bell, Henry Ford, Wright Brothers, and Steve Jobs would have joined the long list of hopeless idealists if I hadn’t instilled the confidence in them to experiment, innovate, and create.
Who am I? I’m creativity. How can I be of help to you?
Everyone calls me every day without fail; I come to their aid every day without fail. What they need is commitment. Thus, I’m unable to be of any assistance.
They devote ample time to her art, and in my opinion, it’s their biggest weakness. Time to practice, write, read, reread, edit, research, rewrite for several hours every day.
They want me to do the job or give clues; otherwise, they get frustrated, demotivated, and dejected. They need to spend more time in nature to contemplate, reflect on great art pieces in the museums, and reread the classics again.
I don’t deal with the profession's demands or follow the whimsical trendy topics about productivity. It’s not my job at all.
I can promise that if a creative has a lot of time to fail, retry, and is less worried about success and wants to create, then I’m available free of cost, anywhere, and any time.
Don’t put conditions on me, don’t pin me down into productivity hacks, and don’t ever question my presence. I’m always waiting for the undivided attention of the individuals to join them on their creative journey.
