Renunciation, an expression of creativity Part 2

As young children, we're all creative. We draw sing, build, and dream. Life is Easy. All we need are food or fuel, space and time to be and express ourselves. Yet somewhere along the way, we get lost and make life a little harder for ourselves because we think with our head and eyes rather than with our he-ART.

Have we forgotten the meaning of freedom, closing our eyes and sleeping in the middle of the afternoon with no feeling of guilt?
I do believe that creative confidence develops itself through renunciation of the high perception we have of ourselves in the eyes of others.

Who are we seeking to become - Thx Seth

Seth Godin asked '' Who are we seeking to become '' in his new blog post today. The article resonated with me as I am doing a small experiment recording the time I spend on certain activities, pushing my boundaries to ultimately get a reward after spending a certain amount of time on them. My reward is an ultimate form of indulgence which not control can overtake my life... It is working - my mind is more focused, wanders less. The carrot is too appetizing for me to give to give up. I cannot actually wait to get it. In the long run, I will be transformed. My future self will thank for me for that. This is what I want each minute that passes...
