If you make your goal visual, you're more likely to reach it. And visuals can help track your progress, too. I'll be using visuals to track my progress on this goal throughout the coming year.
True happiness comes from the joy of deeds well done, the zest of creating things new.
~ Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Creativity is inherently optimistic, centered on the belief and confidence that problems can be solved and things can be better. Highly creative people know one of the best ways through tough times is to use their creativity and talents. And their ability to look at things from multiple perspectives allows them to find the humor in things.
The person born with a talent they are meant to use will find their greatest happiness in using it.
~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Let no one think that flexibility and a predisposition to compromise is a sign of weakness or a sell-out.
~ Paul Kagame
Flexibility is one of the cornerstones of creativity, so it comes as no surprise that highly creative people are also highly flexible. The ability to look at things from multiple perspectives often leads to seeing more than one way to do something, which makes it much easier to remain flexible. Keeping the big picture and ultimate goal in mind helps too , because the details are generally where the most flexibility is needed.
The boldness of asking deep questions may require unforeseen flexibility if we are to accept the answers.
~ Brian Greene

From Deborah:
It was an honor to do Interpretive Touch Drawing at Seeds of Compassion.
Touch Drawing is a simple yet profound process. Images are created through
the touch of fingertips on paper. The process allows for direct expression
of the soul, and can be used for deep therapeutic and spiritual purposes.
In the conference setting, I use Touch Drawing to visually portray the
content and energetic qualities of the lectures and musical performances.
Through the immediacy of the process, I can create 7- 8 drawings per hour.
These drawing were created during the Tuesday event; 'Inspiring Compassion
in Our Youth; Youth and Spiritual Connection Dialogue'. If you attended the
day or are watching it online, you can use these images to enhance the
feeling-tone of the presentations. Think of them as notes from the soul.
All these images will be posted soon on the CONFERENCE ART page at
www.touchdrawing.com. Go there if you would like to order a signed, archival
fine art print. Contact center@touchdrawing.com if you are interested in
purchasing an original or receiving permission to reproduce an image.
Drawings can be enhanced with color. A percentage of any income generated by
these images will be donated to support the ongoing work of Seeds of
Compassion.
