Creative solutions to world problems

Shared Global Vision –
Creative solutions to world problems
The creativity we express in our own life demonstrates how we can create the world we desire.
We observe how our thoughts drive our personal world.
We experience a new atmosphere at work when we focus on our uplifting power.
Our expression of respect for everyone creates dignity and safety.
My ability to create safety for myself allows me to think clearly when there is a disturbance around me.
My ability to envision safety throughout the world draws me to those resources which address the abundance of resources which actually exists.
One resource is “Drawdown” by Paul Hawken.
When I am discouraged, I read another solution in this book which compiles the data of available resources and how even this can be improved by better practices.
I am so grateful to be able to have input for solutions.
This encourages me.
Forward thinkers like Dr. Greg Braden and Dr. Bruce Lipton and Dr. Joe Dispenza demonstrate the power of creativity through their work.
They see through the disparaging miasma and bring out solutions through geology, biology, and the other sciences.
When I fill my thought with solutions, I become part of the solution.
I no longer add to the feeling of despair.
I practice the solutions which come to me on a personal level.
This lets me trust that there are solutions on a world level.
People who are tuning to solutions are creating a way to apply them.
I support this action with expectation.
I see the solutions which come to individuals and groups where there is a focus on them.
The result is that communities change their character by including everyone in well-being.
There is a more optimistic feeling as people perceive a new way of looking at things.
Creativity is in action as we implement the new solutions we perceive.

Creativity for your household

Young Persons Mentor/Uplifting Parenting –
Creativity for your household
I create the tone for my household.
When I am in an orderly frame of mind, I can establish an orderly household.
When I am upset, overwhelmed or in a state of confusion, my household feels it.
The underlying clarity I feel comes through in the routines which I have established for my household.
The way we care for our personal and common areas supports the atmosphere I have created.
The way we converse with each other and the courtesies we habitually express convey a feeling of respect and dignity.
This is the household I have created.
It requires consistent standards to maintain.
It requires constant vigilance against the confusion and disorder of the world.
We recreate our peace each time we follow through on our routines.
We create a wholesome and uplifting place to do our work.
We add many creative elements to our day and our work when we start out with peace.
It adds joy and delight to wherever we are.
We attract more joy and delight.
We celebrate our excellence.
We have room to receive creative ideas because our house and our life is in order.
We can discern what we need for each higher layer of expression because our base is secure.
Creativity lets us share our new projects with each other.
We have time to do them with enjoyment.
We have time to discuss them with their creators.
We are in a space of creative peace.
We add to our peace through doing what we love to do.
We interact in a loving and uplifting way.
We create safe haven for all our household.

Pebbles of Peace Pathway 2.50 –
My little pebble of peace is my thought that everyone is precious.

Pebbles of Peace Pathway 2.50 –
Little Ripples
Once again,
I am given the opportunity
to add to the peace and calm
or add to the concern.
By my lights,
I am not even permitted
to add to the concern.
I must add
to the peace and calm.
You see,
every thought
we throw into the ring
makes a little ripple.
The more throwing power
we have,
the greater the ripple.
The media
is creating great ripples
because of its throwing power.
But
I have a little bitty
counter.
I know that
if I start a ripple
from another direction,
it will lessen the momentum
of the giant ripple.
And so
the little bitty ripple
that I am starting
is this.
I have
a little pebble of peace.
My little pebble of peace
is my thought
that everyone is precious.
I see it
in the eyes of little children,
their preciousness.
I see it
in the eyes of adults
when I tell them how much
I appreciate what they are doing.
I see it
everywhere
that I can express gratitude
and recognition and support.
And so you see,
we all have the opportunity,
through our little pebbles of peace,
to create many little ripples.
I am so grateful
for the many people
who add so much to my life.
You,
and all of us,
are very precious.

Receiving creative ideas

Your Diamond Mind –
Receiving creative ideas
My innate creativity lies within me.
That is where I feel most at home.
I receive the messages of self-worth and creativity when I listen within.
I now understand that I am creating my life.
The ideas I choose to receive are the ones which shape my life.
As I listen within, I can choose to receive ideas which are unlimited.
Even if they are unfamiliar, I can choose them because I like them.
The unlimited ideas are very attractive.
I move into a different way of expressing my ideas when I realize they are unlimited.
I am open to new ways of doing things.
I am willing to accept a new view.
I gently move myself into a new world through creating it.
The qualities which I value in my new world are safety, warmth, embrace and security.
I am so glad I have taken the steps to value what I love to do.
That helps me feel secure.
I am always willing to listen for ideas which help me do what I love.
This acts as an attracting force for what is good.
I attract like-minds.
I am appreciated and recognized.
I am encouraged to continue my excellent and uplifting work.
I am embraced by the community which loves me.
I am part of a community which shares my values.
I am validated.
I leave the disruption of a life that is not working for me and move into one that I love.
I feel peace within and all around me.

Releasing creativity brings peace

Pebbles of Peace –
Releasing Creativity Brings Peace
We are all creative beings.
We are actually creating the world we live in today.
As we realize this power, we can consciously direct our thought to create what we desire.
I desire more peace within and all around me.
I desire a feeling of safety for myself and everyone who lives on the planet.
It is time to create an uplifting atmosphere for more than myself.
My inner peace has a powerful momentum behind it.
I have learned to create safety for myself by listening within.
I know where I need to be.
I know the tiny steps I need to take for creative expression through art.
I know the way to slow down my breath to calm myself.
I know how to write in my journal to listen to my fears and to address them.
I know how to prepare myself when I am ready to leave my apartment in order to feel safe.
My peaceful expression adds to the peace around me.
I am convinced of the power of inner peace to create new surroundings.
It has been a long time since I attracted bullies.
A fearful mind attracts like-minds.
I respect how I think and what I give voice to in my art and in my writing.
This is more powerful than outside influences in the present or as memories from the past.
I know the kind of people I trust and enjoy.
I attract those associations.
Every time I identify a quality of character which I admire, I am adding energy to its expression in the world.
As I consider uplifting qualities of character in my writing and give voice to them, I am creating more peace in the world.
We can consciously redirect our thought and attention to what is uplifting and create more of it.

Creativity for Mental Balance

Loved Cherished Adored –
Creativity for Mental Balance
As we give ourselves more room for personal expression, it balances the duties and influences we carry around.
We respond to requirements on our time.
We respond to hidden influences in our culture and from our childhood.
We can begin to notice what comes up for us when we consider the idea of personal expression.
We are here as unique individuals.
When we are starved for personal expression, it makes us feel bad.
When we begin to feed the need for personal expression, it moves us into our natural, intended state.
We all have so many opportunities, once we begin creating.
We find more and more ways to play.
We start to spend our valuable time in original thinking and playing.
These creative ideas fuel our daily existence in an uplifting way.
We are able to be more alive at work.
We can even begin to discover a way to spend more of our time in a happy state of creativity.
At some point, we may be led to develop ideas which best express our uplifting nature full time.
Our tiny steps lead us gracefully into happiness.
We achieve mental balance on the side of happiness through creativity.
We give our ideas room to flow.
They grow until they take up more of our time.
We live in a place of happiness.
We are able to fulfill our duties and society’s demands on us with a more uplifted sense.
We see ourselves as competent and confident.
Living as who we really are adds immensely to whatever we do.
We bring authenticity into our lives and release the burdens.

Recognition and Appreciation of Resources

Shared Global Vision –
Recognition and Appreciation of Resources
As we practice balance in our home and work lives, we can expand our vision to appreciate the resources which are available throughout the world.
Balance in the recognition and appreciation of resources is healthy.
It removes our fear of limitations.
We can begin within our communities.
We can contribute our uplifting thought to projects in the city.
We can serve in some capacity, and get to know others who are involved in city projects.
Our neighborhoods always benefit when we know each other.
We can add to the balance through keeping our neighborhoods clean.
We can add to the balance through community gardens.
We can add to the balance through consolidating our errands.
We can cultivate an attentive sharing attitude.
As we release fears about limited resources in our communities, we can serve on boards for our city and county.
We can become aware of emergency protocols and how to prepare our communities.
We can create recreational activities which let us get to know the folks in neighboring communities.
We can host exchange potluck dinners for the purpose of getting to know each other.
Gradually, other sharing activities will emerge according to our skills and needs.
It is important to create balance by getting out of our homes and interacting with our neighbors.
We can find common ground and we can discuss differing viewpoints in a respectful and dignified manner.
We can discover personal resources as we build trust and knowledge through our exchanges.
Genuine interest in the well-being of everyone in our neighborhoods and communities becomes the attitude we share as we participate in all the levels of resource allocation.
We are able to see our progress though the happiness and thriving nature of everyone who lives on our planet.

Balance in the home systems

Young Persons Mentor/Uplifting Parenting –
Balance in the home systems
You create balance in the home systems when you engage everyone to make a contribution.
When you begin each day with the thought that everyone is a contributor, you remove the pressure from yourself.
You open yourself to practical ideas.
You may create a list of chores which you post in the kitchen for each person to check off.
You may have a morning gathering on the weekends and assign chores.
You may have a daily and weekly routine which everyone follows.
The balance is also created by family read-aloud time, family game night, and family movie night.
Having regular time to enjoy each other’s company is important for the balance in your home.
It is good to have resources for your children which they can access on their own.
I had a box of art supplies in a low kitchen cabinet for my children to use while I was teaching music lessons.
Part of the balance is returning unused supplies to the box.
As soon as children learn to read, they can read to themselves from the bookshelf in their room.
They can play outside where you can see them.
You can take them to the park along with something you like to do while they play.
They can help you in the kitchen as you prepare meals, setting the table, and later, clearing the table.
They can help you prepare their snacks.
A schedule is helpful while you have young children at home.
You can introduce puzzle time, block time, art time, reading time, even with picture books at first.
This gives you time to do what you need in small steps.
It teaches your children self-sufficiency.
They do not get overstimulated with media.
Take the steps to teach your children what to do and they will grow in self-sufficiency.
