@Ricardo1 asked me a question tonight on one of my posts, and it got me thinking. THis is a big question, and demands more than a flippant one-line response. So here goes...

Q. What is Creativity!

A. Something that is inside all of us

But: we may not even be aware of it yet, or know how to harness it to our advantage.


Creativity is something I have always been passionate about. That comes from my firm belief in a Creator who designed us to use our minds to improve our existence.

I designed my logo which hopefully embodies that very spirit of discovery and creative mentation. (interesting, it appears not to be a word in the Spellcheck, hmmm)

Webster's Dictionary defines it as:

men·ta·tion - menˈtāSHən/
noun technical = mental activity.

.

But that creativity may have remained hidden inside us for years or even decades.


And then one day we found...



WA is the outlet many of us have been looking for that allows us to express our creativity in a way that, if applied correctly to something we are deeply passionate and knowledgeable about, can bring us closer to our life and financial goals...


Maybe that is why we have so many like-minded folks at WA, willing to use their talents to improve their lives, and the lives of those around them. Maybe that's why Kyle and Carson reflect that same drive and passion that is WA.


When we make those huge (or small) breakthroughs, we call them...



Have you experienced those Aha! Moments at WA?


I 'm sure many of us have. Maybe you fixed a broken plugin, or added an extra snippet of CSS code to make a slider work, or maybe it is something as small as being a totally new member and working out on your own how to get a menu to display instead of getting a...


There are many members here who would be encouraged to hear about those breakthroughs.



Thanks in advance for reading and for your thoughtful creative comments.


One thing is for sure, If you follow the steps of WA training, I will definitely...

Your thoughts...

Mankind is a living manifestation of the forces which created the universe, in other words, we are creation incarnate. We are all born with infinite potential, but then there is a bonus which we have come to call gifts, this is the hidden greatness that must be recognized, developed and then used to support us in this phase of our existence until we eventually pass on to the next realm of creation,,
and yes this organization of development was put in place by a supreme consciousness most of humanity calls GOD,,....,I LIKE THE LOGO Michael GREAT BLOG TOO

Creativity is the ability to turn thoughts into action and creating

Hi Michael, It's "branding"!! You are good at what you do!

Hi michel
And I think the logo is the best and brightest I have every seen

Thank you so much for the kind compliment Paul.

Hopefully the logo demonstrates the point on creativity. My marketing professor once said If you need to ask anything about a logo, then it failed miserably. Those words were in my mind when I conceived it.

See you @ the Top!

Oh Cavan, that's deep. So what about your Aha moments, care to share one or two creative breakthroughs?

Tech i think my first Ah-ha moment came when I found WA,and did the free course for 7 days. And trust me I am not one to fall for something until I have checked it out thoroughly but I knew at the end of the free trail this was it...

HI there Cavan!

The Aha Moment was also when I met WA.
It was also the first thing I blogged on. See you @ the Top!
