How to start a creative journey?

It is that time of year again- then end. Perhaps you and I and maybe everyone wants to see a self-revolution in 2024. Everyone wants to work for themselves and work creatively while doing so. Everyone wants to start businesses and brands. Everyone.

Picture "creativity" in your mind. We often see a person. Maybe a slim man who wears white shirts and always big pants. His face is kind and warm and different with his lumps and odd turns, but he is almost handsome. The thing about creative people is that you know that inside he has a brilliant mind. Rich in ideas and wealthier in opportunity.

Let me explain to you that our personification of creativity is very important. Intuitively we understand, clearly, that creativity requires a sacrifice of what is, to us, everything else. Money, staus maybe, attractiveness even.

No, because this is fear and fear is nothing but a bit of rope that ties you to the ground you stand on. Difficult, true, but for something to be difficult is just one more reason for us to do it. So, we must begin an approach toward creatvity.

Cahrles Bukowski, Poet

First, we must turn to creative people. Creativity is a process of life and so we can learn from those who have lived a life before. For, what can we learn if not for artists. The purpose, I think, of creativity and art is to tell us what is everything and what is not.

Everyone wants to be a mother or father or a writer or a businessman or a banker or a bartender or a surgeon and that is invariabley what they will become, with time, and that is their punishment.

To those who wake in the morning with no certainty of who they are and what they know will never be anything and that is their reward.

If you know you have something of a fire inside of that tells you to do something a little bit different. Make a living on something kind of strange or create something new, then you must pursue that with everything you have. The only way to do it, as overhwleming as it sounds, is completely. To begin a creative journey asks of us everything that we have.

You want to build a brand then you have to go do it. You say you should start your own business- start a blog then or a storefront or a discord or an onlyfans. Create ideas right now. Post a picture on your instgram tonight. Do another one tomorrow. This must keep happening because it takes time. So much time.

An article could not encapsulate the ways you start seeking something more out of life but serve as an inspiration to awake a small creatuve flame.
