- Entrepreneurship
“Creativity, as an entrepreneur, is the greatest tool that we have,” shares host and business coach Cheri Ruskus. When you think about imagination and the role it plays in your life, what comes to mind? For Cheri, imagination is the cornerstone of her creativity and the key to her vision and passion for her business, as well as in all other areas of her life. Use of the imagination is a skill that everyone has within themselves. Even if you do not think of yourself as a creative person, there are countless ways to tap into your creativity and boost your imagination. Today, Cheri discusses how to go about honoring your creative spirit and growing your imagination.
As a child, you likely used your imagination constantly without really having to think about it. This is why Cheri recommends thinking about your inner child when looking for creative inspiration. Think about what you used to enjoy doing as a child. What people, stories, and games fueled your imagination? The more you honor the inner child that still lives within you, the happier you will be. It takes courage to step into your creativity and leave behind fears of failure and judgment. By staying curious and trusting in your inner genius, your imagination will be free to flourish and lead you in new creative directions.
Imagination is a critical component of creativity, innovation, and inspiration. Without it, you risk losing sight of your vision and passion for your business. Let go of restrictive beliefs about creativity, because there is no one right way to be creative. Instead of worrying about making mistakes, trust yourself and let your imagination guide you.
