Just how curious are you?

The reason we even wish to be creative lies in this human faculty of curiosity. Without essential quality there is no engine to start our questing. You hear some gossip; your curiosity is raised. You see a headline and you're drawn into story. A movie trailer teases you visually, with words, action music and actors--- and you wish to see entire film.

Every form of advertising and promotion, commerce and entertainment is based on understanding this strong desire to explore that dwells in heart of everyone. You have an innate interest in what world has to offer, what makes it all tick, what ideas others may have and which ideas you may develop.

This natural inclination is deeply embedded into our brain's neurons and pathways and is so vital that your very survival is based on its existence. Curiosity causes us to investigate things. It urges us to invent, to explore, to experiment and build.

Imagine where humanity would be without it!

If that stick were placed on that rock and spun with enough force and friction next to some dry grass miracle of fire could be produced. Fire, which had belonged only to Mother Nature as a wild force of unpredictable power and capacity, found its way into our very hands to be used and directed. Born of our curiosity. In our deepened simian eyes we could see it rage across plains, eat whole forests and explode in intense heat. Our curiosity brought us an invention in primordial history that was as dynamic and life changing as 18th century development of incandescent light bulb.

As a child you were constantly curious. You wanted to learn 'why' 'how come'--- about everything. You drove your poor parents wild with your questions, didn't you?

What happened? In adulthood we seem to ask fewer and fewer questions. It's not only because we 'found' so many answers along way. Rather, very 'essence' of questing seems to have faded as 'day-to-day' concerns of life and commerce impinge on our living.

"Every prayer - every thought, every statement, every feeling -is creative. To degree that it is fervently held as truth, to that degree will it be made manifest in your experience." -Neale Donald Walsch

In your business and in your personal life, if your mind was a huge, blank sheet of paper, what would you fill space with? Would you use it to create positive or negative thoughts?

Using your mind as a blank sheet of paper gives you chance to create new goals, and to reach for new heights. A blank page gives you an important guide that pushes you toward self motivation and inspiration.

You can change your blank page at any time. Your God given imagination is there for your to use to create business and personal life you want. You can create a new beginning. It's your choice and not anyone else's. You can use it to erase any negative thoughts, feelings, or opinions.

When someone tells you you can't do something, can you separate fact of their statement from their opinion? Use your imagination to create a better, more useful outcome. Understanding that there is a great distinction between two may decide your success or failure.

How valuable is their opinion? What is truth behind statement? Being able to determine difference between facts and opinions when you hear them is important. Always consider cost of having someone else's opinion prevent you from doing something that is not based on facts. Do facts out-weigh opinions? Or, are opinions more important than your desire to be self you want?
