    9 Ways 90 Days: Live Your Passion

    18 Things Highly Creative People Do Differently

    Recently, I had the pleasure to hear Arianna Huffington, founder of The Huffington Post, speak at an Institute for Integrative Nutrition Conference and I loved her passion and humor. So glad to see the article on The Huffington Post, “18 Things Highly Creative People Do Differently.”  I’ve always believed that one of my key strengths is my creativity and that I think and build ideas in new ways. But, WOW, when I read this article, so many other attributes of my life are in-sync with the umbrella of creativity.

     

    I’m sharing this because finding your passion and living the life of your dreams is essential for happiness. Within the Food & Life 9 Ways 90 Days program, in Way #9 “Live Your Passion” we offer powerful exercises to help you live the life of your dreams.

     

    Back to The Huffington Post article, the 18 things highly creative people do differently are:

    1.      Daydream

    2.      Observe anything

    3.      Work hours that work for them

    4.      Take time for solitude

    5.      Turn life’s obstacles around

    6.      Seek new experiences

    7.      “Fail-up”

    8.      Ask the big questions

    9.      People watch

    10.  Take risks

    11.  View life as an opportunity for self expression

    12.  Follow true passion

    13.  Get out of their own heads

    14.  Lose track of time (get into the flow)

    15.  Surround selves with beauty

    16.  Connect the dots

    17.  Constantly shake things up

    18.  Make time for mindfulness

  • Motivational Quote: Time to Sail

    “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain.

    Sail from your safe harbor.
