Creativity Pathway #101:
Silence

 Welcome to the New Year! A time to get going, commit to those action items,
restart
but wait! Is all of this activity making you dizzy and out of focus?
We live in a noisy world -- televisions blaring, cell phones ringing, emails
beeping -- and then, we create noise with our "To-Do's," "Should-Do's," and
other self-inflicted anxieties. Even as I sat down to write this Pathway, I
caught myself with the TV blaring and two interrupting phone calls.
Noise can, in fact, silence our minds. It is the static that stands between
great inspiration, intuition and idea. So before you begin mapping out your
year, take 15 minutes to do nothing. Turn off the television. Unplug the phone.
Turn down the volume on the lists that are running in your head. Then, surround
yourself in stillness to see what your undistracted, uncluttered mind has to
say.
To quote Elizabeth Kόbler-Ross, "Learn to get in touch with the silence within
yourself and know that everything in life has a purpose." When you open the door
to silence, inspiration follows it in.
