Creativity Secret #1. Define Creativity Correctly
Why Don’t I Have More Creativity?
Although each of us was born creative, many of us feel, “Me, creative? As if!”
Given that most people don’t know what creativity is in the first place, guess what? How can they possibly recognize their own creativity? No wonder they feel discouraged.
Yet all of us can do better than that. Let’s start opening up new creative possibilities for you.
What IS Creativity?
Seems to me, we’ll need at least two definitions for creativity. After you read them, maybe you’ll make up a different definition, your own. (That would be creative of you.)
#1. What Is My Creativity? Here’s a Practical Definition.
Sometimes creativity means saying and doing things just for the fun of it. Other times, creativity means saying and doing things to solve problems.
#2. What Is My Creativity? Here’s a Spiritual Definition.
Creativity means saying and doing things to express your soul. To express the personhood that you have for this lifetime: Discover a deep-down originality that you will never have in any other lifetime. (Even if, like me, you believe in reincarnation.)

Creativity Secret #2. Drop False Expectations
How Can I Become More Creative?
Do you love your creativity yet? Do you use your creativity every day?
If you don’t use it, you won’t love it. Sadly, if you believe false ideas that dominate in our culture, ouch! You won’t be able to love your creativity. Not yet.
Ever feel like your creativity is broken? It’s not. More like, you may not know enough yet about how to use it. That’s all. And you can learn.
Creativity doesn’t have to involve “The arts” or “Performing music” etc. Fans and fame have nothing to do with creativity, either.
When exploring your own creativity, be prepared to throw off common confusions you’ve learned from our culture. (Not your fault.)
Nonetheless, muddleheaded ideas about your creative expression are popular. These can influence you subconsciously At least, you’ll reflexively turn to those cliches until you purposely add ideas about creativity that have a Higher Truth Value.
One of the 5 secrets in this article is the value of doing “Standalone Creativity.” Follow up and you’ll start doing something creative, today and every day.
Creativity Secret #3. Creativity Is Built into You, Spiritually
“I Am Not Creative.” Ack! Ever Worry about That?
This article is part of a series about who you are as a soul. Scroll down to find these 6 previous articles listed, complete with links. These free resources can help you to understand your own soul better. As a result, you’ll gain more access to your own creativity.
It’s essential to understand that the two are linked, creativity and your soul. Having a fabulous personality and a jacked-up body — this has NO connection to using your creativity. Creativity is spiritual!
As Thomas Moore wrote in Care of the Soul:
“Creativity is a faculty of the soul.”
He’s so right. Your creativity is built in. No extra charge.
So maybe it’s time to learn some new understandings and skills.
Important to Know, Regarding that Soul of Yours
What has religion taught you about your soul? Quite possibly, this may not include the perspective of Energy Spirituality®, the field I’m founding. Energy Spirituality helps people grow emotionally and awaken spiritually, using skills that work now, in the Age of Awakening.
Are You Religious?
If so, keep on believing what you’ve already been taught. Nonetheless, you might choose to add some additional perspective. Ideas that can help you to use more of your God-given creativity. Did you know this?
Mainstream religions were founded during the Age of Faith, a bygone era that ended on Dec. 21, 2012.
Now all of us are living in the Age of Awakening. Regardless of your spiritual path, you’re more awake now. Simply by virtue of living during this Second Consciousness Era on Earth.
Are you Spiritual But Not Religious?
If so, you might wonder why your Creativity Prayers haven’t been answered. You know, prayers like:
My Creativity Is Gone. Bring it back!
My Creativity Is Dead. Heal it!
My Creativity Feels Blocked. If you love me, unblock me now.
In the Age of Awakening, it isn’t enough to ask God to help you. Human problem solving is up to you. It’s spiritual to use your creativity.
In short, maybe it’s time to learn some new understandings and skills about creativity. Discoveries from the Age of Awakening!
Creativity Secret #4. Stop Comparing Yourself to Others
“My Creativity Is Not Good Enough?”
Far too many people say things like this:
Sadly, My Art Isn’t Good Enough. 1.68 BILLION hits on my Google.
My Writing Isn’t Good Enough. 959 MILLION hits on my Google.
My Music Isn’t Good Enough. 1.03 BILLION hits on my Google.
Some Perspective on “Good Enough”
As you know, Taylor Swift has some fans. An estimated 53% of American adults.
Likewise, Jay-Z, has quite a few fans. According to Billboard and Vibe, he’s the greatest rapper of all time.
As for Queen Bey, might she have quite a few fans as well? According to numerous major publications, Beyonce is considered one of the most culturally significant figures of the 21st century and one of the greatest artists of all time.
So Many Fans!
When their lives are over, each of these fans will have a Life Review. God will ask, “What did you learn? How did you help other people?”
How sad, in my view, to answer, “The main thing I did was to worship Queen Bey.”
Fans, what a waste of your own talent! If only you could spend as much time on using your own creativity!
On a Practical Note, Spirituality Wisdom Seeker
Secret #5 in this article, coming soon-ish, will introduce you to using “Standalone Creativity”. Doing this will take from 4 to 20 minutes daily. (Spend the full 20 mins only if you’re having fun!)
That secret can greatly improve your creativity. Now, back to our Secret #4:
Might I suggest? If you’re a committed fan of any performer or athlete, try this experiment for six weeks. Replace 4 to 20 minutes of that fan-swooning time daily. Instead, let your own “Standalone Creativity” begin to jump-start your own creativity.
Nature abhors a vacuum. If you haven’t yet learned good creativity skills, it’s too easy to believe that you lack creativity.
As a consolation prize, you might latch onto famous creatives as if they have all the good talent. Truth is, living as a Swiftie (a Taylor Swift fan) won’t make you creative.
Instead, how about you learning how to use more of YOUR creativity? Then you may have less time for admiring people with big Fame Karma. People whose talent may not be as big as their personal Fame Karma!
Many Stars with Fame Karma Lack Talent, Actually
Those two previous links are part of a series of six articles. Using good skills of energetic literacy, I’ve researched many celebrities who are pretty empty inside. Though they are lucky enough to have a bunch of Fame Karma.
Meanwhile, what can you do if — like most mortals — you don’t have big Fame Karma?
Bring extra life into your life by actively using your own creativity! I recommend this:
Take the Free Intro to my course on “Creativity Secrets with Soul.” This course teaches creativity skills that work now, in the Age of Awakening. Students tell me, they’ve never seen anything like it before. This approach helps wake up their lives, along with their creativity.
Whatever you decide about whether to further study creativity skills with me, this Intro is offered with no strings attached. And you stand to gain a great deal.
Creativity Secrets #5. Do Standalone Creativity
Here’s How to Awaken Your Creativity
Use your Standalone Creativity daily. Simply do this, no judging yourself.
How to do this? Here are the basics:
Give yourself two periods of Standalone Creativity daily. Choose two different times of day.
During each period of Standalone Creativity, improvise or create something. Sing or dance or write a poem, etc.
You’ll be expressing your soul spontaneously through whatever you do during this time. Enlivening your soul expression for this lifetime. That’s the point.
Consider this art for art’s sake. Not to show off for other people. For Heaven’s sake, in order to benefit from your personal creativity time, you won’t need to go viral, either.
Use a timepiece to keep track of the time. Each period of Standalone Creativity lasts between 4 and 10 minutes. Your choice.
In a future article I’ll add to the introduction given here. Meanwhile, consider that you’re off to a good start.
Ask any questions you might have. And yes, you’re allowed to have fun with this.

Thank you for clarifying the differences between Practical Definition and Spiritual Definition of creativity, Rose. The distinction is very helpful in understanding about using my creativity as a "Standalone Creativity" daily.
I have taken the online Energy Spirituality® workshop called "Creativity Secrets with Soul" and learned soo much from it I gain new perspective every time I re-take this online workshop.
