Any activity becomes creative when the doer cares about doing it right, or better.

A serene moment

When negativity seems to have taken over your thinking, and all you can see in every direction are problems, stop and calm your mind. Clear your thoughts away and for a while, feel the peace of simply being.

Let go of the thoughts racing through your head and let in a feeling of serenity. Put yourself in a state where even the distractions cannot affect you.

Allow the negativity to drain steadily away and enjoy the clear, calm awareness of what is. Let go of the need to make judgments about what is going on, and let in the pure experience of what is happening.

See that the disappointments of the past are far, far away. Let your peaceful, accepting experience of the moment fill you with a solid, confident energy.

Step back for a little while and feel the calm reality of who you are, of the life you are living. Enjoy a serene moment, and your eyes will be opened to the positive possibilities that are all around you.

— Ralph Marston
