Why Are You A Creator?

H/T to @apkussma for the idea. I have always made things but consciously considering myself to be a "creative person" over the last 2-3 years has been very good for the soul.

    1. Considering myself to be a creator gives me permission to try new things

    0

    Focus on the process, not the outcome.

    2. Thinking like a creator lets me frame mundane tasks as an opportunity to do better and think like an artist

    0

    Painting trim, washing dishes, walking the dog. "Creators" do these things with purpose, and so do I (most of the time)!

    3. Willing something into existence from your thoughts is very satisfying.

    From a headphone stand to a song or published book.

    4. Creating is continuous learning

    5. Creating gives greater appreciation for people that have achieved mastery

    0

    I have played guitar for 40 years. I am pretty good but not "great" but I still enjoy improving every day. The better I get the more I appreciate people that are better than me.

    6. I have been fortunate to have creative jobs, or find creativity in jobs

    0

    This has made most work a satisfying part of life.

    7. The more you consciously create, the more you can create

    0

    Each step in learning makes you better.

    8. There are financial opportunities

    0

    I have made some good side money with things that I have made but have not hit one out of that park yet. You will never sell a book that you did not write. If you continuously prepare yourself for opportunity one will come.

    9. Developing my "Idea Muscle" has been tremendous this year

    0

    I have done more in 2023 than I imagined was possible. I am getting a good start to the second half of my life.

    10. Why not?
