Every person is desirous of achieving laurels in his life, by doing something excellent, unachievable and referrable. When we have decided on target/goals, we find a well-defined path to follow in order to achieve the same. When we are able to achieve our goal, our struggle is also suitably rewarded. On the other hand, the hope of getting the fruits of labour, guides and directs us to accomplish the work till its completion.
TRUTH IS BEAUTIFUL
You look at the sky, vast emptiness, and everything stops within you. You also become vast emptiness. It is not just an aesthetic experience; it is religious. Beauty is truth….and truth is beautiful.
—OSHO
Fringe of Creativity
The people who have a burning drive for creativity put in their best efforts in achieving the same. By doing so, they achieve a sense of pleasure. This situation from a point of the view of accomplishnent can be called as an ideal base. This is a period when our work becomes our life.
“ Ek Hak, Na Ki Ek Farz
Ek Mauj, Na Ki Ek Bojh
Ek Khushi, Na Ki Ek Sadma”
The reason for all this is the self-experience hidden in the background of the personality of a person. Everybody is dependent on his character and nature.
In case you desire to give this impression in this society—that you are of high character, have working abilities, have working abilities, have self-confidence—you should have creative thinking in all these fields. Your mind should be full of and filled with creativity constantly.
“The conditions required to mould your future, are not to be gathered from external sources; it is within you; you possess it. The only thing you have to do is to learn the proper use of these tools in a right manner, whereby never allowing the fire of creativity to extinguish. The success in the completion of the task will be proportionate to the quantity of physical and mental powers used.”
—Swate Martin
Of all the arts the very best art is considered to make human life full of success and victory. By proper utilization of this art, anybody can become an expert. Those students on the completion of their studies, without getting thoroughly acquainted with art to be successful enter the field to earn their livelihood. They have not been told the difference, and what their nature is. They soon became unsuccessful in their lives. Due to these adverse circumstances, their mind gets filled with suspicions, doubts and fears, which leads to the lowering of self-confidence and non-acceptability symptoms which are easily recognised by other people. Lack of enthusiasm leads to the reduction of creativity and also positive personality is reduced. Wherever he works, people consider him to be a burden. Thus, an expert person, all of a sudden, becomes prey of negative thoughts.
How far the college or university education is beneficial in the interest of the student is a matter of debate; however, it is of the utmost importance for the youth to know about the strengths of mind and heart and its qualities and how to enhance them. There is no doubt or debate on this controversy that for each and every ambition and successful person it is necessary to know how to make the creativity the foundation of all thoughts and how to protect them from destructive influences.
“It is not a matter of importance how a person dies, but it is of the utmost importance how a person lives.”
Mohd. Hazrat
Art of Utility
All our qualities and capabilities should be well utilized because, whatever we do not use over a period of times becomes useless and redundant. If we are basically good, have good thoughts and think of others’ benefit then we should also learn to express it.
“Our outlook can transform a serious task also into a more interesting game, as it is said that when the inner of a person shines with the warmth of goodness, we feel that we have utilized our capabilities in some pious and good task earnestly.
—George Catholil
Psychologists have said that during the day whatever we think and perform, is what actually forms our future. In reality, our true achievements are neither in collection of material goods nor are in achieving the goals; rather it is in cultivating our creativity. We are actually dependent upon our brain and internal energies. Man is the maker of his own destiny if he is honest and dedicated to his aims. The world and destiny also bow in front of him. The river of creativity should flow regularly in our lives so that one day it may merge with the sea of achievements.
Be Progressive
Every person who desires success should be serious about his mental, physical, social, moral values. To show our creativity, we should not hesitate to put in the required efforts and inputs. To spend money on books and travelling is not wastage, but a safe and sensible investment that would make our life more meaningful and successful.
A person should mould himself according to the environment, his own household, his friend circle and the most important being, his profession. His whole life can become a continuous fulfilment. Always remember this golden rule; only a useful life can be a happy life.
Creativity—Ongoing Process
An eminent painter educated his son in the field of painting, with great pains and efforts. The son on his part learnt all that was taught to him and made great paintings, and showed them to his father. The father was very happy with the regular progress of his son and always suggested some improvements.
One day, the son showed some of his paintings to other people also. They said,“Your paintings are even better than your father’s paintings.” The son took the same paintings to his father who as always suggested certain improvements in them. The son was taken aback and lost his patience and exploded, “Father, to give suggestions is very easy, but can you make a picture as good as this? The father was filled with remorse and dejectedly said, “Son, it is true that I cannot make such good pictures. But I always wanted your creativity should blossom and be known far and wide, that you should always improve on your previous efforts. But today it has come to your mind that you have become somebody and you do not want to grow from here. Stagnation is a bane for creativity.”
“Fill thy mind with Me, be thou My devotee, worship Me and bow down to me-thus steadfastly uniting thy Supreme Goal, thou shalt come unto Me.”
—Srimad Bhagwad Gita
Happiness of Creativity
God has bestowed the honour of creativity on human beings. We should not neglect its importance. We should always strive to be more and more creative.
Utilize the creation of God and by enhancing your qualities, create new objects. The people who create good opportunities, their life improves all by itself. Creativity means to see new relations, new ideas, and to cultivate new imaginations. The whole creativity depends upon the person who is filled with energy to create something new. Creativity is the qualitative experience par excellence. It is that power by virtue of which the entire personality becomes active.
Improve Your Creativity
By improving our personal qualities, we can improve upon our creativity. Co-operation, optimism and professionalism, like intrinsic qualities, allow the flow of creativity in our personality. In few people, creativity is found naturally, whereas in others, by preparation and improving upon, they succeed in cultivating creativity.
Creative should not allow the new ideas when created to be destroyed, rather, they should make a note of these. It is a natural process, that when we start thinking in one direction the idea also arises simultaneously, which may be noted in a dairy or a file may be maintained. Serialized properly and organized effectively helps determine the path of success easily. By sheer coincidence nothing is built in an excellent way. Luck also favours educated and creative minds. People with creative ability are always found exclusive in a crowd and in a competitive environment.
There lived a leading musician in New York who taught girls opera. There was a young girl who had hidden talent but lacked self-confidence. The musician suggested to her, “Leave hesitation, increase her self-confidence and improve upon her personality.” He advised her to stand in front of a mirror and recite,”I am music; I am the image of God’s power of music; I am complete in all respect and I can perform par excellence; I can mesmerize everybody with my role; I am the most able actress, etc.”
This girl followed the advice of her teacher in earnest and excelled in her performance on the stage, with every person wonder-struck including the teacher. Such is the power of self-confidence.
You should also stand in front of the mirror and practise daily with its help; you can awaken the hidden progress in your mind. Just by simple thinking only the hidden powers do not awaken as compared with the situation, wherein you talk to your soul. It is a well-known fact that any task accomplished with full enthusiasm has its own charm and rewards.
Principles of Truth
The performance of non-religious and inauspicious work does not repay you instantly, just as by sowing the seeds, it does not give you the fruits. Gradually when sins get accumulated, they cut the roots of the doer. A person performing bad deeds, initially will grow, make progress, accumulate power and wealth, overcome his enemies too, but when his bag is filled with sin the time to see the fruit of bad deed comes; he is totally destroyed and uprooted.
