People discuss looking at others inside your industry, company, and work teams who are moving the way you would like to and model their behavior and methods.

Today's quote reminds us that there are addition places to look for innovation. Dunkin Wardle states:

Innovation often comes from looking outside your industry"

Getting outside your comfort zone allows you to examine things with a new point of view because you cannot assume that you know everything from experience. Just that little nudge may be enough to capture a new point of view that you can find value in and apply to your success.

Many people may choose the Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and Simon Sneaks of the world. There is value there. That being said, with today's expansion in podcasting and/or Youtube, there are many, many new points of view being added to the over all collection of ideas online every day.

According to Buzzsprout as of July 2022 there are over 2 million podcasts out there on a large number of topics. There is sure to be one that clicks for you. If you are listening to this one for the 1st time, I invite you to return and hope this clicks for you!

Now that we have become comfortable allowing our minds to dream and capturing their thoughts, it is good to put a quote into the mix that allows one to get the picture in a single sentence to focus our understanding.

Einstein states:

“Your imagination is your preview of life’s coming attractions.”

I would love to hear what some of your coming attractions are as you have been developing your ideas, prioritizing them and implementing them. What differences in your workflows, processes and accomplishments have happen for you? How do you see you'r coming attractions preparing for their premier? What have you done to preview them for sharing with their share holders; your family, co-workers or others they may have an impact upon?

Share them in our social streams or use our Speak pipe app to share. I would love to share with listeners what you have accomplished and give them a boost to move forward themselves.

Over the last several episodes, creativity has been discussed in one phase or another.

Today's quote by Alan Alda shares why creativity is so personal. He states:

“The creative is the place where no one else has ever been. You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you’ll discover will be wonderful. What you’ll discover is yourself.” — Alan Alda

An individual's creativity is something they alone can experience. It generally involves getting into a space where others may experience it as ideas; but inside your mind, it is sometimes uncomfortable and can give you a feeling of being "out there"

If you can get over the isolation and the feeling of being uncomfortable, your inner space can be quite fun! Don't judge yourself harshly and allow the ideas to flow and discover what you like, then work to improve it.

A real challenge to creativity and implementation is the pace of today's society. Increasing challenges and demands are lengthening our workdays. Demands from family are ever present. Where does one find time to schedule in to allow their imagination to run and dream?

Henry David Thoreau states that“The world is but a canvas to the imagination.” In today's world, we have. a really large canvas with all sorts of information at our finger tips on demand.

As cool as the connivance of instant gratification can be, it also serves as a major distraction. Seriously, who has not started look at something on the net and wondered how it became after midnight just that quick.

Allowing your mind to wander is not time wasted as many would believe if you have scheduled that time for it in the 1st place. I make it a point to allow myself to meditate and also allow my mind to wander before I get out of bed in the morning. This is planned for and scheduled to not interfere with my day. I can tell you that this is some of the most valuable time of the day. The wandering time can allow your brain to process, consider and in some cases create new thoughts that can be very valuable to my self improvement.

Do you allow time for your for thoughts to wander and create your next mental masterpiece? If you are, share what your recent canvas may include in our speakpipe message system. I would love to hear from you.
