Lethargy takes toll of creativity


Being creative is a way of life. When we choose a creative way to lead our life, we in turn are choosing to walk on a two edged sword. Creativity demands being mad and being different from the rest of world. Creativity is the end product of inspiration, and when a person is inspired, he is sure to create a masterpiece, which takes a lot of time to decipher.
Being creative demand being able to walk, walk without being tired, because the day you start to feel weary, you begin to roll back against the power of creativity. Creativeness demands freshness, and fresh ideas emerge when a person is able to filter through the stream of ideas coming in his thoughts and presenting his voice through some art portraying his creativity.
But at times in life, people due to their inherent fears and self made weaknesses tend to slow down on their paths and this is when lethargy and laziness starts overpowering a human personality.
Lethargy is a state of mind, not body, and when a person turns lethargic, it’s not his body, which do not let him work, but the flow in his mind, which forces him to never take up an initiative. The lack of initiative is a sign of lethargy. It is never the case that someone is not able to do something, it is just the will to do or not to do something that drives ones ideas and actions.

When a person is of creative mind, which every one of us is, but when a person chooses the path of creativity to move ahead in life, he/she should make it a point to never let the demon of lethargy to overpower himself/herself, if one wants that he should go far on this path.
Creativeness is an act of originality and innovation, and lethargy signifies the stagnant. Two contrasting things when meet can make a person a deadly combination where his/her mind may not be in control of his actions and the thoughts wanting to flow free are not finding the right medium owing to the actions of a human body and soul.   
If you fear falling prey to lethargy but want to preserve your creativity, remember, positivity and a never say never attitude will help you to sail the boat through. When you try to fight a demon, you face a number of difficulties, which would not be easy to overcome, but, never ever give up, that is the key to your sustainability.

Learn to fight hard, learn to fight your fears and learn to push yourself hard, because in the end, only sincere and whole hearted efforts would help you to achieve a mental peace, which one seeks out of his/her creativity.

On a path to glory

I have been lost before. in a pool of confusions, that delve inside my head. I have been lost before, in a tide of self-doubt, that crept inside my heart.. I have been lost before, in the guilt of underperforming I have been lost before, at nights with unstoppable mourning Through the years I learned, it does not matter If I am lost, I will surely be found And if no one finds me, I myself will one day walk past this maze To do something worthwhile and to amaze All those who laughed at the time when I was lost All those who created a sense of self-doubt, who made me face this ghost I have learned that the fears are just inside All we have is a beautiful world with opportunities, that is real and is outside So, I rise again from this pool of confusion, Yes I rise again from this guilt and emotion, I know am hard at heart when it comes to the topic of self-achievement But what is an achievement, without a little attitude All I want you is to kno...

How corporate professionalism helped me in learning the art of self-appreciation?

It’s been a long while that I wrote something for myself. Though being a full-time content writer, busy in playing with words all day long, who people think of as a word-wizard- never short of something to write, I have, of late, fell short of words to define what I feel about my passion. I started off as a content writer & still, I am that- it’s not that my passion has faded, it is still strong and growing every day, still I sometimes feel I am not doing much for myself. Writing every day for brands and companies- fuelling their aspirations to grow more and more through advertisements, e-mailers, marketing collaterals, etc., I have somehow felt guilty of not helping myself much with my growth journey. But is it my fault… or is it just situational? I am not the type who shifts the blame to professional or personal condition, so I take it upon myself for my mistake. I have not been much serious about my journey, passion and efforts. But through my realization, I came up wit...

Loneliness is a rewarding evil

The path, the journey and the destination The wind was cold enough to make my soul shrink somewhere deep in my personality. It had been days since I saw the signs of a human habitation close to me. I do not know if I did it right or wrong to go forth with this journey, but was amazed to possess a strange feeling of calmness inside, the kinds of which was never felt by me, when I was living my dream life. It was just another day in my fast pace life, when I realized my real purpose in life, was not to excel financially or in terms of success, but to find a path that enrich my soul. The matter has been talked in numerous ways and millions of times everywhere across the web. But I will make sure to add a footnote to this never ending debate. A dream gives us a purpose to live. And my dream was to stand strong with pride. I wanted my father to be proud of me when I achieve the stature of a highly paid professional in the management industry. He had set high standard...
