Instead of thinking Outside of the box, get rid of the box

Deepak Chopra


Hey Urban Fantastic Family

Hope you had a glorious week.

I was thinking about creativity this week and the fact that it's  the one thing that will set you apart from your competition. And most importantIy, the art of thinking outside of the box.

I love being able to produce something in my Urban Fantastic niche that is just a bit different from what is readily available in the market  but its not just in my area of expertise where you can do this. You see it all the time around you. That's the thing that makes the business you give your custom to without a thought  or the person you admire, memorable.

I believe its your unique life experiences that helps to develop that kind of thinking. There is a cost in effort and sacrifice but its necessary especially if you want stand head and shoulders above the rest.


I decided long ago that if I'm going to do this writing 'ting', it's my duty to zagg when the rest of the world is zigging. Hold me accountable if I don't live up to that principle. 

Internalise these nine steps and you'll begin your journey of being a creative dynamo.

1. Keep active

2. Take Risks

2. Colour Outside the Lines

3. Think with your heart

4. Make mistakes

5. Break the rules

7. Work Independently

8. Be flexible

9. Dream Big

We're in this together.

Walk good.

Peace, love and power
