Act on your desire... |
To be creative you must act. Creativity is meaningless if it isn’t acted upon and made real. If you do nothing, you’ve got nothing.
You become what you do.
You become what you do.
In the face of the
immensity of the universe and overwhelmed by your own smallness, it’s easy to
believe you are insignificant. You work to create a life worth living only to
go and turn up your toes and die just when it starts to get interesting. One
hundred or a thousand years later, who gives a damn?
But life isn’t lived
in the future or the past. It is lived now, and that’s where you find your
significance, your meaning. Instead of retreating in fear into nihilism and
despair (however well disguised), you do
something. Something positive and life affirming.
Acting is an answer to
despair, because doing something positive is always better than doing nothing.
By acting on your
creativity you give voice to your human potential. It is an act of embodying
what it means to be alive and to be you, here and now. A refusal to turn away
from yourself, your life or your creative work.
Your actions are the
only things you own. Your actions are the ground on which you stand.
What stops you in your
tracks? How do you blast through it? Take action now and share your thoughts
