Artist Mindset: A Catalyst for Innovative Leadership
I have often been told "you are so creative"
Creativity is often seen as a talent possessed by a select few. However, it's essential to know that creativity is a not a mere talent, it's a way of operating. Engaging in art as part of our routine provides a unique opportunity to tap into your creativity, and cultivate mindfulness.
I usually start my day with some yoga and a spontaneous painting; my daily does of vitamin A(rt). With its raw expression and uninhibited nature, its kicks off my day with a few reminders that makes me a better leader.
Spontaneous paintings emerge from a place of creative freedom, free from the constraints of preconceived ideas or expectations. It reminds me daily to let go of limiting beliefs and embrace a mindset that encourages thinking beyond the conventional. It embodies the artist's ability to question assumptions and break free from limitations. A daily reminder to encourage a culture of curiosity and open-mindedness.
Some days it just doesn't click, but I keep those aside and portions of these make their way into collages. Failure is an integral part of the creative process, embrace it. And sometimes what seems like a failure today, might end up being that right piece of a puzzle tomorrow.
Prize is in the process.
