How we interact with the world is largely based on the way we perceive it. It sounds like common sense doesn’t it? But in reality, how many of us go about our day saying things like, “the economy is just getting worse,” “I’ll never find a job” or “I’m just not good enough?”

It’s the tapes we play in our head that direct our attention, energy and attitude. Yet, we tend to downplay them and blame our bad luck, misfortune or failures on external events instead. We forget the possibilities life offered to us in the form of play, imagination and faith when we were kids. And as we grow into adults, we let fear and these negative tapes dictate our every action.

When you feel stuck, why not learn to bend in the wind of the unknown? Instead of assuming you already know the end of the story, why not flex your creative muscle and recreate your own? This week our posts will help you to get unstuck creatively and emotionally and improve your state of mind and even your sleep with a few powerful strategies listed here.
