THE ABCs of CREATIVE LIVING - Perseverance, Patience and Positive

As we move forward through the alphabet it is impossible to choose only one word for the letter P.  Knowing that you will have to have a lot of perseverance, a lot of patience and that being positive makes the journey so much more enjoyable are important keys to living a creative life or creating the life you want to live.  

Building something new takes time. Changing your life takes time.  And both take a lot of work. But the work and the changes can be so much fun when you approach them with an open mind and heart.  Experiencing each day for what it is, finding the the positive moments and celebrating them and looking forward to the next step makes the journey exciting.  

Persevering and having patience can sometimes be hard. We are a world filled with people who want it now.  But even the "overnight success stories" have a back story.  First there are the dreams and the visions of what we want.  Then the first, second, third, and hundredth step to get where we want to go.  There are the side journeys that teach us so much and sometimes the roads that lead us to nowhere that at the time are so frustrating but become such an important part of the journey.

 I have found that when we have a vision, keep that vision in front of us, and stay positive and patient one day we will find that we are exactly where we want to be.  The book may be finished, the show completed, the new company opened or the day will unfold just as we hoped it would.  To have this happen takes time.  It takes perseverance.  And it definitely takes being open and positive to whatever the universe presents.   

What is it that you are working on right now?  Is it a creative practice?  Is it a dream? Are you building a new life?  Are you beginning something new or just completing something that you have always wanted to do?  Remember that no matter where you are in the process to stop and take time to celebrate the smallest of moments.  It is important to be patient.  It is important to persevere.  It is very important to stay positive.  And it is very important to celebrate all that you have already accomplished so that you can continue to move forward with excitement and joy.

           When you share your dreams and talents with the world, magic happens.  Let the magic begin!


                                                  Create the life you want to live!

Well, thank you for this post today. It hit right when I needed it. I've been trying to complete a project that's been in the process for several years. I get close and then, have to take some steps backwards to go forward, but I do keep going. I laughed at this line: "sometimes the roads that lead us to nowhere that at the time are so frustrating but become such an important part of the journey" That is so TRUE.

I hope your summer is going well. It's really HOT where I am right now.

I am loving these posts you have been doing. They are full of pearls of wisdom. Maybe when you are done you should create an ebook with the whole bunch together.

Patience is very important for every individual life because you cannot make a good decision if you have no patience. Being positive in daily routine is helpful to your health and for you work.
