Creative Mind Part Two

Listen to "Creative Mind Part 2" on Spreaker. In part one of Creative Mind we put focus on recognizing what is and isn't creative energy in your life. In this chapter we rely more on the experience. Which is usually that one place people don't want to go because they think creative energy is something you have to be in the mood for. So we easily set it aside then complain about how bad of a day we are having. The reality? Your creative self is endlessly generating art. Listen to the way you speak or drop thoughts onto FaceBook. You can't ignore the beast within. Which is what it becomes when the art you were designed to make is put up on a shelf for an open weekend that may never come. It drives you crazy when bosses or spouses don't give you the proper attention you deserve. Imagine what that creativee self inside of you is doing. No wonder we look forward to the weekend to party with the neighbors and friends. Once you begin to fill your mind body and soul with margaritas and bourbon the path for that inner voice has been given permission to come out any way it wants to. Not always the happy song or place. So we shrug our shoulders and shoot for another day. While the creative energy continues to build. Where will you be when it finally pops? Learn how to get it under control.

Creative Mind Part One

Listen to "The Creative Mind Part One" on Spreaker. I'm blessed to get the incredible opportunity to sit with a huge number of creative minds. There's no feeling better then watching a silent idea become a surface level reality. Helping people understand their creative potential is a moment that evolves into a long stream of changes not only in their lives but everyone that comes in contact with what they have created. But it's not so easy to meet hidden creators. Those I'm with have stepped free of those forts and huts and pushed their awkward way out into the open. There are millions of writers, singers, performers, producers and leaders trapped in worlds of fear, shame, doubt and other people's greed. Reaching them is what I call dropping the four walls of the church and becoming part of the true thread of the street. To crack open a creative seed is a journey that usually starts with finally answering that voice that wakes you up after not letting you sleep. Stop fighting it. Become who you were called to be. If anyone has a problem with it... Move forward without them. Ouch!

Rob Sheffield

Listen to "Rob Sheffield Dreaming The Beatles" on Spreaker. In DREAMING THE BEATLES, veteran music journalist and best-selling author Rob Sheffield tells the strangest story in pop culture history: how four lads from Liverpool became the world’s biggest group, then broke up—but then somehow just kept getting bigger. How did this happen? Why are the Beatles more famous and beloved now than ever? How is there still so much life in this music? In DREAMING THE BEATLES, the Rolling Stone columnist brings his own unique style of masterful cultural criticism to the ballad of John, Paul, George and Ringo, exploring why the Beatles matter so intensely to a generation that has never known a world without them. It’s a fresh, unconventional, definitive approach to the Beatles—their mythology as much as their music. As in his previous books like Love Is A Mix Tape and On Bowie, Sheffield digs deep into the emotional connections we make to the music we love. How can we keep hearing ideas about our own lives in these songs? How does their music still sound so vibrant and influential today, some 50 years after much of it was recorded? And how has this band become the ubiquitous soundtrack to our lives? DREAMING THE BEATLES is a passionate celebration of that music, showing how the Fab Four became a cultural obsession—and how in so many ways they invented the future we’re all living in right now.

The Valley Floor

Listen to "The Valley Floor" on Spreaker. I specialize in a style of writing that can easily be simplified by what I call "Hiding." It's taking the moments of what we live and feel and ripping from it's emotion all that is negative. Putting the positive inside it's emptiness. As much as I call it "Hiding" I also see it as growing. What we move through during our times of seasonal changes aren't always meant to bend your knees and knock you upside the head and heart. By letting the moment move through you then writing about it through positive ways and eyes. You're able to return to the sheets of paper you filled a different time. That's when you realize the one time attack against your mind body and soul was actually a step forward. Practice this thing I call "Hiding." It's difficult in the beginning only because you want to dump how you truly feel into that sheet of paper. To which I ask, "What did that tree do to you? It sacrificed it's rings so you'd have a place to be free." Now that you respect the moment I invite you to enter your realm of "Hiding."

The Lyrics From Billy's Forest Chapter 67

Listen to "The Lyrics From Billys Forest Chapter 67" on Spreaker. I was shocked to see that it's been nearly a month since I've written in the forest. How is that possible? It feels like just yesterday. While in thought my writing instrument drew out a frame of mind that sort of crosses the line. Has God gotten so bored with our place in time that he's taking his game to a different level? I do it all the time. When I want Monopoly or any other board game to come to an end I will make mistakes on purpose just to let someone win. How is it nearly May of 2017 already? There are so many mile makers along the way that should be slowing us down but nothing seems to be creating mountains. We keep mowing down the possibility of a seed. To keep peace at heart without wandering my new search is for boredom. I love sitting in it. I love to stare at a blank wall with no photographs or paintings. Boredom is the only way I've been able to slow down time. Is this the reason why people of age don't like to sleep at night? They realized how fast time is moving so they want to participate with more ticks on the clock.
