Talk Tuesday - Dreams forgotten...Creativity gone.

The other day I was thinking about all the dreams I had as a child and teenager. I did so many things. In elementary school I would write short stories and tell them to my mama. In junior high, I was into art, calligraphy, and science.  In high school I was on the dance team, did nails, and hair. As I look back on all those things I have once done, I realize I was a very creative child. What has happened along the way for me to allow my creativity to get lost...as adulthood took over.  That is the issue for most living in this crazy world.

When adulthood kicks in we feel that it's time to put the "childish" things away and focus on landing that "perfect" job or career. BUT....what if those childish things bring you complete happiness and they are all you can dream and think about? Why are most people willing to stifle their creativity instead of honing in on the one thing that brings them happiness?

One of my life long dreams is to become an entrepreneur and I'm in the process of making it happen for me. I feel when you're to a point when all you can think about is fulfilling that desire within you, then it's time to act on it. The one thing most people are afraid of are timing and failure. There is no perfert time...EVER. We should strive to live in the now and not tomorrow. I honestly would much rather fail at trying instead of failing to try.

I say to you, go out there and release your inner creativity and reintroduce yourself to things you once loved. You may be surprised to find that inner child in there ready to take over the world. Until next time...Stay Fabulous and true to yourself.
