Creativity is much like what is found with
antibiotics. You find a antibiotic that works but in time, the
bacteria evolve or mutate to become immune from the antibiotic you
use. So you have to create a more powerful antibiotic only to find
the bacteria evolve to require an even more potent antibiotics - and
the game goes on, and one.
So too our creativity. As soon as you think you got it and
understand it, it will challenge you to something even greater. The
creativity perspective is one that recognizes this fact and
continually challenges oneself to move past whatever they have
created. If you think about it, this is what almost everyone does
with their life but they do not recognize it. The ageing process of
life continually challenges us to go beyond where we were - from a
child, through adolescence, young adulthood, mature adulthood and
old age followed by death.
Since you are unique, what you do and what you need to learn to hold
your creative sacred will not be the same as another. There will be
similarities but you are unique and you will need to embrace your
uniqueness. What does serve one’s creativity in a given situation
will not always be logical to the mind and yet at other times, it
will be extremely logical and straight forward. When holding one’s
creativity sacred, everything else is seen as malleable including
one’s concept of God, whatever concept of God you choose, and those
provided by Science. These concepts are seen as malleable for
neither can, or will, fully explain the process for neither looks at
the entire process. The reason for this is both the concept of God
and the concepts of Science are a product of the unfolding creative
process of which the human imagination is only a part. To fully
understand, you have to be able to view the whole process from
outside the process. Being within the process we can only infer the
entire process based on what we have learned from within the
process.
However, similar to both the concepts of God and Science, the
creativity perspective does not look to explain the entire process.
It only looks to what allows one to perceive their own creativity
and how to cause that creative ability to grow and expand and to
find what is effective in your life for your creative needs. It does
not seek The Answer about the Universe. It only seeks to allow you
to understand, access and claim your own inherent creative power
within the universe to its full depth and breadth.
You can keep your concepts of God and Science as you desire if you
feel they serve your creative needs. The creativity perspective only
seeks to find effective answer for what one desires to create, which
can include what you seek to find in God and/or Science. However,
only you can determine what is effective for you and your creative
needs. Only, you can do this. No one can do it for you. If you don’t
do it, your
creative spirit will create situations to challenge you that
your mind may judge as unacceptable and something which you would
prefer not to experience. Analogously, the creativity perspective is
directed toward optimizing the creative ability you can access and,
to the extent possible, even generate greater ability.
Life itself is designed to continually challenge one’s creativity.
All the creativity process really does is embrace life. But to
embark and create life there needs to be a death, a death to the
past in some way, in one form, or another to make room for the new.
In essence, we must become the mythical
phoenix. The creativity perspective provides you a way to face
any death that needs to occur. It does so through your creative
ability to cause an effect. To cause both the death of whatever
needs to die to make room for your new creation and the subsequent
birth and unfoldment of the new creation.
