How to Unlock the Million-Dollar Idea Trapped in Your Mind
How to Unlock the Million-Dollar Idea Trapped in Your Mind
By Daren Armstrong
http://www.theideatoolbox.com
Everyone, even the most left-brained, math-loving people have
creative ideas locked away in their minds, and probably at least
one, million-dollar idea. Sound unlikely? It’s definitely not.
People who claim to be void of creativity simply don’t know how
to unlock it.
According to Anthony Robbins, creator of the #1 bestselling audio
program, "Unlimited Power," and fortune 500 consultant says,
"Creativity is essential for those who desire to have, do and
achieve anything they want out of life". Does that mean those of
us who don’t know how to unlock our creativity can’t get what we
want out of life? Absolutely not!
The ability to access innate creativity is a natural gift for
some people, but it is a learned skill for others. For instance,
did you know that we can all have ‘creative inspirations’ while
wide awake but in a special reflective frame of mind that can be
utilized naturally at least twelve time a day? And did you know
that what you eat has a dramatic effect on the brain functions
that control creativity? In fact, a certain popular food actually
contains a substance used in sleeping tablets. Probably not the
best thing for creativity. But there are also foods that enhance
your creativity.
The point is, creativity can be cultivated in a variety of ways.
But being creative is not something you can read about in a book
and master in an hour. You have to be in the right frame of mind,
and you have to
know what works best to make your creative juices
flow.
For instance, there is a theory that we use the left side of our
brain so much during an average day that it works more
efficiently than the right side. The left side is working
overtime at the speed of light while the right side is taking its
sweet time moseying along. But exercise is proven to speed up
that slow poke right side of the brain so it can catch up to the
left, and meditation slows the left side of the brain to be in
sync with the right.
There are myriad practical ways for people just like you to
access your creativity as often as you wish. Even if you think
you’ve never had a creative idea in your life, I promise,
it’s in you. You were a child once, weren’t you? Well, have you
ever met a child in your life who isn’t creative? I haven’t.
Creativity is inborn in all of us, but some of us lose the
more imaginative side of ourselves in a barrage of math and facts
and routine. But that creative child lives inside you to this
very day, and he or she has more creative ideas than you can
possibly imagine. With the right key, you can let that child come
out and play again.
