What does Openness mean to you? Does it mean being open only to the things you like and what you consider acceptable? Try being open to the things you have yet to create. I began #creativespark as a way to be more open; share my feelings, my thoughts and explore my creative side in writing and in the arts. I recently began painting and to kick start me on my painting journey, I started attending paint night sessions in my local area. It is so relaxing and so fun! At first, I was very fearful of being around others and a little shy about doing something I've never done before. If I let that hold me back, then I would have said: "I've never written a book before so maybe I shouldn't write!" Did you catch the key word here in this paragraph? Fearful. I was fearful of trying something new and that fear of failure held me back and stifled my creative energy - another reason for #creativespark. How do you turn fear around and embrace openness?
