Schedule Time to Be Inspired

Inspiration for creativity is all around us. For me, spending time in nature is a catalyst for creative inspiration. When I go outside and take a walk, I connect with God. The sights and sounds of nature awaken my senses to the wealth of creativity evident all around me. At times I purposely connect with nature to fuel my creative flow.

While hiking with a friend to the top of Cathedral Rock in Sedona, Arizona, I stopped to take a break and absorb the beauty of the moment. I sat in the middle of what once must have been an impressive and dramatic waterfall. No water remains, only streaks where water ran over the bold, red rocks that cascade down the side of the mountain. The only sound was the wind brushing past me, and my eyes were captivated with a vivid and spectacular view that I can only describe as coming from the hand of the Divine. I savored the moment in quiet meditation.

I returned from Arizona inspired and full of ideas. I also made a conscious decision to schedule more time in my life to enjoy nature and places with natural beauty, a joy that has always resonated with my spirit but not necessarily with my schedule.

All of us can schedule inspiration from time to time by identifying what inspires us and then taking time to do it.

What three activities inspire you most?

Whether its reading a book about someone whose life or ideas invigorate you, playing with children, or taking an adventurous vacation, determine what gets your creativity going. Then schedule time to do it.
