Inspiration exists, but it has to find you working.

Twyla Tharp blows up the myth of creativity as magic. She shows it’s a muscle—you strengthen it through routine, discipline, and repetition.

Creativity Isn’t a Gift—It’s a Habit

Creativity loves structure. Tharp starts every day the same way—with a workout. Not because it’s glamorous, but because ritual triggers readiness. Your ritual is your creative ignition key.

Start with a Ritual

You need a space—physical or mental—where the clutter is cleared. Tharp calls it “the empty white room.” From emptiness, newness can emerge. But you have to show up.

The Blank White Room

Art is the elimination of the unnecessary.

Don’t wait for inspiration—go out and scratch for it. Read. Walk. Watch. Steal like an artist. The more curious you are, the more kindling you collect for that creative fire.

Scratch for Ideas

Tharp suggests collecting the tools that keep you sharp: notebooks, routines, favorite works, challenges you revisit. Creativity isn’t just flow—it’s scaffolding.

Build a Creative Toolbox

Self-doubt, perfectionism, fear of failure—they’re all part of the process. Tharp doesn’t sugarcoat it. She tells you to name your fears. Write them down. Then work anyway.

Face Your Fears

Every piece you create needs a “spine”—a clear, driving idea behind it. You may not see it at first, but once you do, everything else hangs off it. Find your spine, and the chaos starts to form shape.

The Spine of the Work

Tharp shows how limits can sharpen creativity. Deadlines. Budgets. Space. Rather than stifle you, they force creative choices. Freedom often hides within the frame.

Embrace Constraints

Some days you’ll feel flat. Some days you’ll hate your own work. That’s normal. The trick is to keep going. The habit of showing up beats the myth of genius.

Keep Showing Up

Tharp’s message: there is no “arriving” in creativity. You keep evolving. You get better by doing. And doing again. Creativity isn’t a moment. It’s a life.

Creative Growth is Lifelong

Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment.

One of the world’s leading creative artists, choreographers, and creator of the smash-hit Broadway show, Movin’ Out, shares her secrets for developing and honing your creative talents—at once prescriptive and inspirational, a book to stand alongside The Artist’s Way and Bird by Bird. All it takes to make creativity a part of your life is the willingness to make it a habit. It is the product of preparation and effort, and is within reach of everyone. Whether you are a painter, musician, businessperson, or simply an individual yearning to put your creativity to use, The Creative Habit provides you with thirty-two practical exercises based on the lessons Twyla Tharp has learned in her remarkable thirty-five-year career. In "Where's Your Pencil?" Tharp reminds you to observe the world -- and get it down on paper. In "Coins and Chaos," she gives you an easy way to restore order and peace. In "Do a Verb," she turns your mind and body into coworkers. In "Build a Bridge to the Next Day," she shows you how to clean the clutter from your mind overnight. Tharp leads you through the painful first steps of scratching for ideas, finding the spine of your work, and getting out of ruts and into productive grooves. The wide-open realm of possibilities can be energizing, and Twyla Tharp explains how to take a deep breath and begin...

The Creative Habit

"You don’t have to be everything to everyone. Be great at something."

<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">The endless quest for an all-in-one productivity solution is setting busy professionals up for failure.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Different aspects of your work require specialized tools optimized for specific purposes.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Just as you wouldn't use a Swiss Army knife to build a house, you shouldn't rely on a single digital tool for all your productivity needs.</li></ul>

The Myth of the Perfect Productivity Tool

"I’d rather be excellent at one thing than mediocre at many."

No single software can excel at everything.<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">This isn't just a technological limitation but a fundamental principle of product design.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Each popular productivity tool has core strengths: Tana for personal knowledge, Todoist for task management, Slack for communication.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">When we force tools beyond their primary purpose, we create friction and frustration in our workflows.</li></ul>

Excellence Demands Specialization

"Clarity affords focus."

<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Contrary to popular belief, context switching between specialized tools can actually improve productivity.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Your brain naturally operates in different modes throughout the day (email mode, deep thinking mode, quick task mode).</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Using dedicated tools for each mental state creates clear boundaries that help your mind transition efficiently between different types of work.</li></ul>

Strategic Context Switching Enhances Productivity

"Strategy is about making choices, trade-offs; it's about deliberately choosing to be different."

Specialized tools naturally segregate information based on use case, solving the challenge of digital overwhelm.This natural separation creates a "well-organized kitchen" where everything has its proper place:<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Email lives where email belongs.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Projects stay in their dedicated space.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Knowledge finds its proper home.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Quick tasks have their own territory.</li></ul>

The Information Organization Advantage

<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">A multi-tool approach makes your productivity system both robust and adaptable.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">As technology evolves, you can easily swap out individual components without disrupting your entire workflow or productivity system.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">This flexibility eliminates single points of failure and allows you to experiment with new tools while maintaining productivity.</li></ul>

Future-Proofing Your Productivity System

"You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step."

<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Begin by identifying your fundamental productivity requirements across knowledge management, task tracking, communication, and planning.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Choose one dedicated tool that excels at each major function rather than tools that try to do everything.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Select tools intentionally by evaluating their core strengths, integration capabilities, team adaptability, and specific problem-solving ability.</li></ul>

Building Your Productivity System: Start With Core Needs

<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Establish distinct territories for each tool in your productivity landscape with clear boundaries.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Create simple, repeatable processes that become second nature rather than complex procedures.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">When receiving new information, you should instinctively know which tool will handle it best.</li></ul>

Clear Workflows Create Effortless Productivity

"Don’t try to fit a square peg in a round hole. Use the right tool for the job."

Rather than hiring "generalists" (all-in-one tools), assemble "specialists" (dedicated tools) for your productivity system.This approach gives you access to best-in-class features for each specific need:<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Superior email handling.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Advanced knowledge connections and visualization.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Precise project and task tracking.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Optimized planning capabilities.</li></ul>

The All-Star Team Approach

<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Building an effective multi-tool productivity system happens gradually, not overnight.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Start with your most pressing needs and expand as you master each component.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">This measured approach ensures a robust, sustainable productivity system rather than a fragile collection of underutilized tools.</li></ul>

Why the “One Tool for Everything” Approach Is a Productivity Killer and How to Fix It

1. Be true to your essence. Not what the world expects—what your spirit knows. 2. Flow, don’t force. Soul doesn’t rush. It guides in whispers, not shouts. 3. Feel deeply. The soul learns through emotion, not logic. 4. Choose love over fear. Every soul decision is rooted in love, even when it hurts. 5. Silence reveals truth. When the world gets loud, the soul still speaks—in stillness. 6. Everything is connected. What you heal in yourself, ripples through the unseen. 7. You are already whole. Growth isn’t about fixing—it’s about remembering who you are.

Law of the soul 

I have a theory.I believe Winning is a choice.It’s not just luck.It’s not just talent.It’s a choice.Now, before you roll your eyes and say, “But I am trying my best,”Okay, but let me ask you this:Have you truly decided to win?Because most people don’t realize they’re unconsciously choosing not to.Let me show you how you’re doing it — without even realizing it.

Winning is a choice. But maybe you don’t realize you’re the one making that choice.

I want you to imagine yourself winning everything you ever desired.That job you’ve dreamed of — the one that makes you feel alive, fulfilled, and respected.That partner you’ve always longed for — someone who truly sees you, supports you, and loves you unconditionally.The financial freedom that lets you say yes to your dreams and no to fear.The confidence to walk into any room and own it.The version of yourself that wakes up with purpose, power, and peace. Do you feel any doubt?That doubt isn’t just hesitation — it’s self-sabotage disguised as logic.

Let’s play a little game

You’re using your imagination in a counterproductive way.You’re not just thinking negatively — you’re manifesting failure.Persistent negative thoughts don’t just stain your spirit — they shape your behavior. They lead you to unconsciously act in ways that sabotage your progress again and again, creating a self-fulfilling cycle of failure.Before you know it, you’re trapped in a loop of mediocrity.

You convince yourself that winners have something extraordinary that you don’t.You believe you need to be perfect before you even try.You assume winners succeed first, then believe in themselves — when in reality, belief comes first.You think winners are just privileged people with unfair advantages.You focus on what winners have that you don’t, instead of using what you do have.And worst of all? You let fearful visions dictate your reality.

That doubt is rooted in beliefs you’ve chosen to adopt:

They’re the mental movies where everything goes wrong before you even begin:You often find yourself saying “I don’t know if I’m ready…”You picture yourself stumbling over words in your speech.You imagine blanking out in your exam.You see yourself failing — before you even start.These aren’t just harmless doubts.They’re mental rehearsals for failure — disguised as realism. Especially when you’re about to do something important: a job interview, a big exam, a presentation, or a speech in front of thousands.

What Are Fearful Visions?

The mind doesn’t just observe — it creates.And when you keep replaying failure, you don’t just think negatively.You become the failure you feared.Once you believe in failure, you start acting in ways that make it inevitable.Suddenly, you’re stuck — not because you’re incapable, but because you’re choosing comfort over success.Why?Because winning comes with pressure.Here’s the real reason most people stay stuck:Winning isn’t just exciting — it’s intimidating.

Expectations. People start watching you. Rooting for you. Holding you to a higher standard.Responsibility. Once you win, you can’t hide behind “one day” anymore. Now, you have to show up — again and again.Pressure. The more you win, the more you have to lose.And that terrifies people.So instead, they sabotage their own success.They play it safe.They let doubt creep in.They unconsciously choose not to win.

Winning comes with:

What if pressure was a privilege, not a punishment?What if expectations meant people believed in you?What if fear wasn’t a stop sign — but a green light that you’re on the edge of something big?Because winners aren’t fearless.They just choose to move forward anyway.They choose to win — even when it’s uncomfortable.And that’s the difference.It’s not talent. It’s not luck. It’s choice.Over and over again.So how do you make that choice — staring today?

But What If You Flipped the Script?

Imagine yourself winning.At first, it might feel ridiculous.Your mind will resist it, clinging to its comfort zone of doubt.It will whisper,“What good will this do?”That’s your logical mind talking.That’s the voice of fear pretending to be wisdom.But do it anyway.Close your eyes. Visualize success. Write it down. Speak it into existence.Say it out loud:“I WILL succeed.”Now take it even further.Imagine it so vividly that you can see every tiny detail — the way it feels, the way it looks, the way success tastes in your mouth.

How to Start Choosing to Win Today

What is the deeper feeling I’m chasing?Is it financial independence?Is it self-sufficiency?Is it self-confidence?Now, sit with that feeling.Let it consume you.Then ask yourself:How do I make this real?What can I do today — and every day — to turn th vision into reality?If you want a little help anchoring this process, here’s something that’s helped me massively: A short, powerful <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ENDYXqYxSI">guided manifestation meditation</a> that reprogrammed my subconscious beliefs and helped me start my winning streak. (Take it seriously. It’s short — but powerful.)

And then ask yourself:

Because thoughts shape actions.When you start reinforcing positive visualization, you naturally begin making choices that align with success — effortlessly, instinctively.And suddenly, what once seemed impossible starts to feel inevitable.If you can’t even see yourself winning in your own imagination,how can you ever expect to win in real life?Winning is a choice.So is staying stuck.Today, you decide which one you’ll commit to.

Why This Works

This is the hypothesis that’s brought me countless wins—and continues to do so.

Understand yourself and those around you.

Winning is a Choice

We often think love is about the big, dramatic moments—but it’s the small, consistent actions that build lasting intimacy.<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Mindfulness helps you respond, not react, during tension or conflict.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Attention, appreciation, and awareness—practiced daily—transform connection.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">You don’t need more time, just more presence.</li></ul>💡 Connection deepens when you truly show up—mentally, emotionally, and physically.

Relationships Thrive on Daily Mindfulness, Not Grand Gestures

✔️ Mindful partners reflect instead of projecting emotions onto others.✔️ Ask: What am I really feeling—and why?✔️ Owning your triggers leads to more conscious conversations and less defensiveness.💡 Clarity in conflict starts with inner awareness.

Understand Your Triggers Before You Blame 💥

✔️ Most people don’t want advice—they want understanding.✔️ Mindful listening means pausing your response and focusing on their emotion.✔️ Validate their perspective even if you disagree.💡 Listening with presence makes others feel seen, heard, and safe.

Listening Mindfully is More Powerful Than “Fixing” 👂

✔️ Create daily check-ins, gratitude rituals, or short hugs with full attention.✔️ These small acts of consistency are what sustain intimacy.✔️ Don’t wait for problems—invest in your connection while things are good.﻿💡 Love grows when you nourish it daily, not just when it’s in trouble.

Learn how to cultivate meaningful, resilient relationships through simple, mindful habits that boost trust, communication, and emotional intimacy.

Feel disconnected from your spouse or partner? Struggle to keep your relationship fresh? Worried that everything will end in heartbreak? It's easy to fall in love. The challenging part is keeping that spark alive while you and your partner deal with "the real world." Your relationship can often seem less urgent than the day-to-day emergencies that you deal with -- your job, finances, children, and that to-do list full of chores. They all demand your immediate attention. So how do you find the time to nurture your love and intimacy? What often gets lost in the shuffle is the love you share with your partner. Maybe you've neglected some of the positive habits you adopted when you were dating to win over your love partner. Or perhaps all of your conversations seem to end in arguments? Or worse, you might occasionally wonder if your relationship is even worth salvaging. The Solution: Build Mindful Relationship Habits If you want to build a deeper connection with your spouse or partner, then one solution is to build "Mindful Relationship Habits." In a mindful relationship, you are intentional about all your choices and interactions with your partner. You become more proactive in responding to each other's needs and less reactive to the challenges that often arise. You evolve to a higher level of interaction with one another.

Mindful Relationship Habits

We notice things in and around ourselves we haven’t noticed before.The thoughts, the feelings, the physical sensations.Thoughts are not a problem, but automatically identifying with every passing thought is a huge problem.

The only thing fuelling your thoughts is your attention.If you want to access more of your vitality, get used to paying attention to your breathing.We just have to understand that these are thoughts – not truths.

Most of the psychological suffering we humans experience is voluntary and self-inflicted.We believe in thoughts that want to harm us.It’s there, in our minds, that our suffering is created; that’s where it lives and thrives.You shouldn’t believe your every thought.

Self-inflicted psychological suffering:

‘Knowledge is proud of all it knows. Wisdom is humble before all it doesn’t know.’There’s value in not getting stuck in a state of certainty.If we always cling to what we think we already know, how will we ever discover anything new?How can we learn?

Kitschy wisdom:

‘The next time you sense a conflict brewing, when you feel things are about to come to a head with someone, just repeat this mantra to yourself three times, sincerely and convincingly – in any language you want – and your worries will evaporate, like dew from the grass on a summer morning.’‘I may be wrong. I may be wrong. I may be wrong.’

The magic mantra:

Thoughts with the word ‘should’ in them make me small, dull and lonely.Clench your fist hard, then relax it into an open hand.It’s simple, but it’s a good illustration of how we can let go of things we cling to too hard: things, feelings, convictions.

Closed fist, open palm:

<ol><li class="ql-align-justify">Loving-kindness.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Compassion</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Muditā – humanity’s inherent capacity to feel joy at our own and others’ success.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Upekkha - ‘You always have to start with yourself.’ Your compassion for others will always fall short and remain fragile, so long as you’re unable to extend it to yourself first.</li></ol>

Buddha singled out four emotions he considered divine.

There’s value in not deceiving others for our own gain, in not hurting others because it serves our purposes at the time, in avoiding bending or twisting the truth because it’s more convenient.Something beautiful starts to happen when we actively choose to take responsibility for what we say and do.

Be the thing you want to see more of in the world:

What happens when we genuinely, with our entire being, understand that we don’t have each other forever?We no longer have time for half-measures.One day, we’re going to have to say goodbye – to every single person who means something to us.There’s only one way to approach other people and life itself: gently.

9 Powerful Lessons from the book "I may be wrong" by Björn Natthiko Lindeblad

'This book really, really will stay with me forever. It's not only laced with the most incredible wisdom, but it's also gentle and beautiful and eloquent. It brought me so much joy and so much comfort' FEARNE COTTON 'Life-changing. This book is sensational. If you're struggling, feeling a little lost, anxious or in need of a mental lift, please read it' ELLA MILLS, FOUNDER OF DELICIOUSLY ELLA The Sunday Times bestselling book of comfort and timeless wisdom from former forest monk, Björn Natthiko Lindeblad We like to think we can determine the path our life takes, but events rarely unfold the way we plan for or expect. In this international bestseller, former forest monk Björn Natthiko Lindeblad draws on his humbling journey towards navigating uncertainty – helping you, with kindness and good humour, to: - Let go of the small stuff - Accept the things you cannot control - Manage difficult emotions - Find stillness at busy times - Face yourself – and others – without judgment Infusing the everyday with heart and grace, this is a wise and soothing handbook for dealing with life's challenges.

I May Be Wrong

Most relationship struggles come from unhealed wounds, not incompatibility.<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Self-love isn’t selfish—it’s the foundation for showing up fully in love.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Emotional independence creates space for interdependence, not control or codependency.</li><li class="ql-align-justify">The more you understand yourself, the more compassion you can offer others.</li></ul>💡 The quality of your relationships is a reflection of your inner world.

Loving Others Starts With Loving Yourself First

✔️ Emotionally mature love is calm, curious, and compassionate.✔️ It’s not about perfection but taking responsibility for your triggers.✔️ Growth requires pausing before reacting and choosing empathy over ego.💡 You can’t control others—but you can master your response.

Emotional Maturity is a Skill—Not a Trait

✔️ Love isn’t about changing someone to meet your expectations.✔️ When you try to fix others, you ignore their autonomy and bypass your own discomfort.✔️ Support growth, don’t force it—change is only meaningful when it’s chosen.﻿💡 Letting go of control makes room for real connection.

Let Go of the Need to “Fix” Others 🧘‍♂️

✔️ When conflict arises, look inward first: What emotion is this triggering in me?✔️ Many arguments are rooted in past pain, not present behavior.✔️ Healing your past allows you to see your partner more clearly.💡 Your partner is not your past. Don’t make them carry it.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The beloved author of Lighter offers a blueprint for deepening your compassion, kindness, and gratitude so you can truly grow in harmony with another person and build stronger connections in all your relationships. “A beautiful offering from the heart, to the heart.”—Elizabeth Gilbert “Yung Pueblo holds a mirror to the relationships we have and offers clear directions to the relationships we desire.”—Simon Sinek “How to Love Better is destined to change your life.”—Lena Waithe “Everyone enters relationships with imperfections and negative patterns that block the flow of love, but when you embrace growth, the new harmony within you will flow into your relationship.” Love enters our lives in many forms: friends, family, intimate partners.

If we see our relationships as opportunities to be fully present in our healing and growth, then, Yung Pueblo assures us, we can transform and meet one another with compassion instead of judgment. In How to Love Better, Yung Pueblo examines all aspects of relationships, from the rose-colored early days when you may be hesitant to show your full self, to the challenges that can arise without clear communication, to dealing with heartbreak and healing as you close a chapter of your life. The power of looking inward remains at the core of Yung Pueblo’s teachings. Ego and attachment can become barriers in a relationship, so the more self-aware you become, the more you can support both your partner and yourself. How to Love Better includes: • How to build harmony in a relationship • How to see each other’s perspective • How to find the right partner • How to heal from heartbreak • How to overcome attachment • How to form commitments • How to argue Yung Pueblo’s insights on embracing change, building a foundation of honesty, and learning to listen selflessly will resonate regardless of where you are in your healing journey. And his unique combination of poetry, personal experience, and thoughtful advice will help you grow and strengthen all of your relationships.

How to Love Better

Many Christians pray safe, predictable prayers, but Groeschel challenges believers to pray bold, faith-stretching prayers that can truly change their lives and deepen their relationship with God.

Safe prayers aren’t enough

Dangerous prayers often lead to discomfort, challenges, and growth. They’re meant to refine, not just reassure.

Prayer is not about comfort

Groeschel encourages readers to ask God to search their hearts, reveal hidden sins, wrong motives, and areas needing transformation. It’s a call to radical honesty with God.

“Search me” — Psalm 139

This prayer invites God to break pride, self-reliance, and anything keeping us from full dependence on Him. Though painful, brokenness often precedes breakthrough.

“Break me” — Luke 22:19

A bold prayer of availability. Rather than praying “God, use me if…” or “when…,” it’s saying, “Here I am. Send me. No conditions.” It’s about surrendering our plans for God’s purposes.

“Send me” — Isaiah 6:8

Dangerous prayers often lead through difficult paths, but God uses that pain to shape character, increase dependence, and equip believers for His calling.

God uses pain with purpose

The greatest effect of dangerous prayers isn’t external—it’s internal. God uses prayer to align our hearts with His will.

Prayer changes you before circumstances

why your prayers are so lame? Make dangerous prayers. What if you asked be broken rather a new job, better salary or a house.

Be inspired to pray boldly, pray powerfully, pray with passion, and trade ineffective prayers and lukewarm faith for raw, daring prayers that will transform your daily life.Do you ever wonder if God answers your prayers? Do you wish you could see the evidence that prayer changes lives? Do you long for more than playing it safe in your faith? Join New York Times bestselling author Craig Groeschel as he helps you discover the power of authentically communicating with God, breaking out of the restrictive spiritual safety bubble, and expanding your ideas about what's possible with God.The Bible tells us that prayer has the power to move God's heart, but some prayers move him more than others. He wants more for us than a tepid faith and half-hearted routines at the dinner table. God called you to a life of courage, not comfort.In Dangerous Prayers, Groeschel will show you how to pray the prayers that search your soul, break your habits, and send you out to pursue the calling God has for you.
