30 times?! Stages of Creativity you didn't know occurred

Yesterday, while watching a video on Instagram, 
I kept saying this is "creatively funny" as I laughed, allowing air to be blown against my teeth.

I was really blown away by what the "creative" did.

The thing about creativity is that, our mind has been designed in a marvelous way that most of the time, we only imagine the end of something but not the beginning.

For instance, you might see a bag and your mind captured that, it can be better than the one you saw, but the amusing thing is that, the mind doesn't remind you that you need to start from a piece of cloth, unless you've turn it over in your mind.

so I have discovered that there are process that I and people like Steve Job  pass through when creating something, and interestingly enough you pass through it also.

👁️‍🗨️The PREPARATION stage is the stage where you tend to study, research, gather information about the material of cloth that would be proper for the kind of bag that is in your head.
It is the grand floor of creative process.

 👁️‍🗨️The INCUBATION stage. As it has been known in the hospital's neonatal intensive care unit that incubation gives a premature babies extra time to develop and grow. This stage is  reached when you want to keep all you've researched on and gather them at the back of your mind either subconsciously or unsubconsciously.

It is like walking around the building, moving away from your desk to clear your mind and after sometime you come back to the table, you start thinking about it (the problem), jotting out some ideas,even while you're doing other work.

👁️‍🗨️The INSIGHT stage is where the magical aha aha moment comes into manifestation, the brain tends to reset the problem into a solution at this stage.

👁️‍🗨️The EVALUATION state is where you now ask yourself and meet other "critical minds" to know if the idea is worth Sharing.

There's this amusing story about I heard about Stephen king, his first published novel CARRIE was rejected 30 time and each time it was rejected, he improve on it, he sold about 30,000 copies of the first print.

Lastly is.....
👁️‍🗨️The IMPLEMENTATION stage is where the ideas goes from thought to action, the ideas on the paper is now brought to reality.

Linch Pin To Being Lucky

Some months back, I was privileged to be at a book club hangout. As I remembered that day, I made effort to jar my memory about everything that happened on that day. Amongst the things I remember was, been called upon to make an introduction about myself. After saying my name and all of that, the anchor, whose energy level I dearly admire asked me a question. The question she asked was, "do you believe in luck?" With a long pause, I thought hmmm! Why did I get that kind of question? I mean–every other person's were been asked about their hobby and this is what I got! Well, this is a tough one, who doesn't pray to be lucky?! I can't really recall everything I said, but I recalled saying something like, "luck is not as important as preparation"; I went ahead making instances to justify my claim. When I looked back at what I said that day, I realized that, I tend to still agree with it, because when you are lucky–apart from winning a lottery–it could only m...

  Rather than seeing fast growth as a goal, see it as an adjustable variable; that's even if you're in for the infinite game. This entails that you strategically slow the rate of your growth, by extending your tentacles as a means to acquire enough skill and training that would help you move head long in the midst of added pressure, because there's going to have a lot of them as you journey along in your endeavors. What make an endeavor "successful" is not in that endeavor itself, it is the individuals who are behind that endeavor that determine how successful it would be. ~PCI

How decisions shape who we become

Image
Have you ever been in a situation where you are having a back and forth talk with someone–as to what should be done– and all they keep saying is, " I have made up my mind; this is my decision!" Have you? Oftentimes, decisions are as a result of a convictions or evidences we have, based on the matter at hand; sometimes, it could just be because of the outcome or objective that we have at the back of our mind. Making or taking decisions can most times be dicey...because there's no  difference between that and responding to something. It's quite the same! Your decision determines your response. To put this in a better perspective,  your decisions are pre-determinant of your reactions; every response you once gave is due to decision you've once made, be it private or publicly.  However, in most cases, your decisions will not be consistent with life happenings, therefore, be careful of what decisions you are making, because  decisions are powerful, once you made them t...
