"The best way to predict the future is to create it.".
   ~ Peter Drucker ~

 

 

THERE IS A DIFFERENCE

Instead of learning how to create what we want, most of us have been taught to react to the circumstances we find ourselves in. We may even become very successful in responding to people, situations or circumstance.

Yet there is a difference.

There is a difference between responding to outer circumstances and creating. Creating is bringing into being something you want. Something that did not exist before you created it.

Creating is not a response to circumstances, which is moving from the outside in, a reaction to what is occurring out there. Creating is an inside out endeavor. To be creative is to ask, "What do I really want?" and then to focus on creating those results. What is created starts from within.

Let's look at an abridged version of the Recipe for Living by Design (full version found in my free special report and eCourse found at my web site).

1. Conceive of what you want - create a vision

2. Make a neutral assessment of where you are compared to where you want to be

3. Take action in the direction of your goal

4. Observe the results of your actions. If they took you closer to your goals - do more of that. If not, try something else.

5. Build momentum by taking consistent action

6. Keep going until you create the result you want

The cool thing is you don’t have to believe you can do this. You can practice and find out for yourself what is true. You will change your belief as you produce concrete evidence that you can create what you want. All you have to do is participate in the process and find out for yourself.

And don't give up. Creators don't give up

So, what do you want?

What do you really want?

And are you willing to choose to create it?
