Spend several minutes speaking gibberish and see what happens. You will feel your mind freeing up. You will feel released. You may not be able to stop.

Silly is one of most powerful creativity inducers you have. Hey, reader-kreader, get silly-pilly now.

And Today . . .

I have a friend who is a comic and character actor, and a master of gibberish. A fun kind of friend to have. He is also a jazz musician. He introduced me to amazing activity of scatting.

Jazz musicians improvise with their instruments. Some jazz singers improvise in a certain way with their instruments, their vocal cords. They scat. Scatting is like gibberish set to music. They sing nonsense syllables. When you hear scatting, you hear a kind of freedom and often some playfulness.

Yep, that’s your “assignment” for today -- scatting. Get out your favorite music and scat to it. Get your whole body involved. Scat at top of your lungs and below a whisper. Let neighbors hear (or co-workers, if appropriate). Then scat so softly you can barely hear it. Mess around, scat around, play around.

When you are not near music, scat to songs in your head.

Scat no less than fifteen minutes today, preferably much more. Scatter your scatting throughout day. You will enjoy that freedom after you jump in and do it. Break silly barrier and try it. What have you got to lose?

You will dissolve some ruts in your brain and some furrows in your brow. And scatting can be very aerobic when you bring your body along.

What a LULU (Loosen Up, Lighten Up) day this is going to be. _____________________________________ Publishing Guidelines: You have permission to publish this article as long as resource box is included.

How about one of these: *I can do it!* *Yes!* *Power!*

Where you used to think thoughts that limited you, now think an empowering thought. Cancel old thought pattern. You can find Cancel Technique at Http://www.tameyourbrain.com/brainmakeyouwinner.htm

Five: Condition new pattern until it’s consistent.

Pretend you have a mandatory drill every day to condition new thought pattern -- as many times as you can, but be consistent. If you do it 5 different times during day, do it at those same times next day. In beginning, OVERemphasize your new, empowering habit. Totally focus on doing it louder, longer, cuter, faster, whatever, as this will help you remember to do it.

Six: Test it!

Does it work? If not, why not? If it doesn’t work, redo it. If it does work, share process with those who can use it. Good luck.
