Starling ^_^

Hello, This is Aunty Creatshifitshy





Well, i don't really look that ugly in reality!, but what can i say?! it's life, and it's side-effects on you, you know! :$

        I would like to share my story with you, so let me have your attention for a little while.

It all started with a simple drawing of mine!, I was a creative beautiful kid, like any kid, who likes to draw, use their imagination, and create.. 


I loved to draw spaceman with five heads, there was no "logical concept" to me, i just drew what made me happy, until i met a "NO" teacher, who was actually shocked when saw my drawings! because he was living by the human "logic" like everybody else.
  
And he told me what to draw and what not to!
here we began to construct the obstacles that blocked my mind and put an end to the creativity.
And my life became so damn boring like everybody else, by their "logic".

Until I heard about starling, the restorative workshop, that would show me how to bring joy back to life by getting my creative mentality back.

and the sessions started..


First session "briefly":

 NO sufficient definition suitable to describe creativity;
Everyone was born with the potential to be creative; like everyone!, including you and me! 






1- No one answer to every problem!


 that means there's more than one aspect that needs to come to light, and thought about
"the secret of creativity is to hide your sources" to let people come up with more.

2- there's Nothing called "logical" 


 “New ideas germinate faster in the loose soil of soft thinking, which finds similarities and connection among different things or situations.” — Roger Von Oech
rules, routines.. etc, kills your creativity, you must drop the word "should" from you dictionary, just go explore on your own -will talk about it later ;) -

3- It's Okay to be foolish :) let's have some fun! :D


and it's okay to make mistakes, much better than sitting like that watching everybody around becoming what they want!
Carl Yastrzemski hit the ball 3000 times and set a world record, but think of the 4000 times he didn't hit it..

4- Don't limit yourself


 You can do anything, like anything, go try new stuff, get out of your comfort zone, explore more, know more about yourself! that's when your life begins
Because everyone can be creative, just remove the blocks you are putting on your way, and practice.

5- the list of bans <3


i think you need to join the sessions yourself to know more :P

As soon as you can recognize that what you’re hearing is what’s blocking your creativity, as soon as you can single out and name the voice that is holding you back, you’ll be blasting full throttle into the creative process and all the magical places that it can take you.

 last but not least, I "Aunty Creatshifitshy" am so much grateful that i'm among them, they know how to make you longing for the next sessions and so much excited :).
