The Fifteen Creative
Steps/Guidelines
Step/Guideline 1: Calibrate
your internal compass to know what serves and doesn’t serve your
creative spirit and learn to read your internal compassion to be
able to align with the flow of energy created by your intention.
Step/Guideline 2: Obtain clarity of Intention. Become as
clear as possible on what you desired to create knowing you can
change or iterate your intention as your perspective changes as a
result of these steps. Since often what we think we want is
environmentally dependent, identify the type and kind of feeling
that accompanies what you desired to create so that you do not lose
focus in your creative effort as the environment changes. Hold your
intention and, in particularly, the feeling you desire to create as
a single point focus for your life. On this point, look at the
origins of your intention and look to see who or what is calling
forth your creative ability. Look to see how your creative spirit
is, or is not, being served by what is being called forth.
Step/Guideline 3: As you explore you creativity, you will
need to admit and accept that you have developed response patterns
to life that render part, if not a majority, of your conscious
creativity powerless such that you are unable to access a sufficient
creative power to create what you desire. Trust that your internal
guidance is more than adequate to guide you to change the response
pattern to something that better serves your creative needs.
Step/Guideline 4: Understand and accept that there is a
Creative Power greater than what your ego can understand. Yet this
Creative Power is only accessible through, and within your own
being, when you harnessed your ego. Learn to harness your ego. One
of the quickest ways found to harness the ego is to seek to create
something for another which your ego considers impossible or highly
improbable with no expectation of direct personal return and
surrender to the lead of your intuitive guidance to create it.
Step/Guideline 5: After obtaining clarity of intent and
choosing to harness the ego, turn your will and your life relative
to your creative endeavor over to the care of this Creative Power as
you understand it and surrender to the flow of energy that is
manifesting what you intend to create. To surrender to the flow of
energy and harness your ego, allow your intuition to guide your
actions relative to what you desire to create.
Step/Guideline 6: Make a searching and fearless inventory and
evaluation of your choices, especially related to your creative
effort, regardless of whether you considered them right or wrong,
and understand why you chose the way you chose as opposed to some
other choice.
Step/Guideline 7: In understanding why you chose the way you
did, understand and explain to another (as a witness and
representative of the external world) exactly how you denied and
failed to use and follow your internal compass and/or your intuitive
guidance and become aware of the truth that you denied. In denying
and failing to use your internal compass you subsequently deny the
truth available within your being and your body to feel and sense
the internal wisdom to create what you desired.
Step/Guideline 8: As a result of this inventory, open
yourself and ask to have this Creative Power as you understand it to
remold and recast your character. Allow yourself to transform what
you think are shortcomings and obstacles by looking to see how they
have been an asset in accessing and releasing your unlimited
creativity while doing what you need to do to manifest your
intention.
Step/Guideline 9: Make a list of all the people,
organizations and/or particular perspective or views of life to
which you looked for guidance and direction, and/or looked to them
to act first, rather than looking within and doing what you yourself
needed/need to do. You have to be willing to make the amends for
what you had thought about them and/or yourself for them not acting
as you wanted and expected them to act. To know what to do, review
each of these and ask your intuitive guidance where you need to make
the amends and what must be done and then act as lead by your
intuitive guidance. As you act on your intuition, understand because
of the way mind characterizes what it experiences based on the past,
your intuitive guidance will not necessarily tell you the correct
action to take but rather it provides you the correct direction you
need to travel in action on the intuitive guidance you get.
Step/Guideline 10: Alignment with this Creative Power and the
creative process and holding the focus on the flow of energy that is
manifesting what you desire to create is an ongoing and never-ending
effort to both manifest and sustain your creation. Create a single
point focus on what you intend and take continual inventory as to
how you are making your choices and where you deny acting as
necessary, admitting it and consulting your intuitive guidance to
correct it. Learn to feel what thoughts, works, deeds, and memories
serve or don’t serve your creative efforts.
Step/Guideline 11: In a way appropriate to your being, such
as in prayer, contemplation, meditation, study, experimentation,
rituals, etc, you have to seek to improve and expand your
understanding and conscious contact with this Creative Power within
and without. Seek through your internal compass to maintain
alignment with unwavering faith with the flow of the creative life
energy that sustains your being and the energy that is flowing to
manifest your intention.
Step/Guideline 12: Without a passionate single point focus
almost to the point of being blinded to create what you desire, you
will need another. Ask your intuition to find someone who would help
you hold the focus with unwavering faith and hold you accountable to
your creative efforts and what you desire to create. Honor the
intuitive guidance that you receive.
Step/Guideline 13: In awakening to the creative power
available to you, you have to practice these principles becoming the
embodiment of your creative efforts by actively living your truth in
the world. In doing so you carry this understanding to others by
allowing your life to be the proof of the creative power available
to each of us. It is only in sharing your experiences and these
principles when and where appropriate do you create that world in
which you create what you desire
Step/Guideline 14: Only in loving ourselves did we create the
space within our being to live the truth of our being. Only in
loving another as ourselves where we created the space to allow
others to freely live the truth of their being could we reveal the
depth and breadth of the creative power within ourselves to
ourselves and others. In finding and embracing your creative power,
create the space within yourself to allow yourself and others to
freely find and embrace their creative power. Become a rainmaker, a
dream midwife and nanny for the dreams of at least one individual,
giving freely and unconditionally, without obligation or duty,
whatever was required with no expectations in return. Without
placing expectation on the individual in any way, they are free to
unfold true to their nature at each and every level of their being.
In doing that for another, you give the same gift to yourself. As a
rainmaker, create the fertile space for their dream to grow inside
themselves. As a dream midwife, assist in birthing that dream to
take a form in the world. As a nanny, help to ensure a safe and
secure space until the dream was strong enough to “stand on its own
two feet” and go into the world. In doing so you give the same gift
to yourself for you cannot give what you do not have.
Step/Guideline 15: Become a light unto yourself. Know and
live the truth that Creation/creation, whether experienced
internally or externally, is not done alone but can only be
experienced with, and through, another in some way. Know that living
creation with another in no way requires you to compromise the truth
of your own being to shine forth. Creation is magical enough to
allow each of us to live true to the truth of our own being and yet
allow the other to remain free to do the same.
