The Creative Habit

Ahhh, habits. When they’re good they’re very, very good and when they’re bad… you know the rest. Different habits are performed by varying Inner Selves and often conflict. One common example is at 5:30am your WorkOuter, a practitioner of good habits, has to contend with the hangover your Partier caused the night before. Another example is your Responsible Self is saddened and appalled by having to pay $450 worth of late fees because your Inner Martyr lent a friend money who still has not paid it back. One way to get out of a rut is to cultivate creative parts of you. Choreographer Twyla Tharp wrote an inspiring book called The Creative Habit: Learn It and Use It for Life. And in Long Life: Essays and Other Writings Mary Oliver, poet extraordinaire writes how habits shapes our inner lives. Learn Inner Voice Dialogue starting this Thursday, March 5, 2015 in NYC – see workhops page for all the details.

I admit that I haven't read the book at this very moment though I know that people have been talking about it. Actually, I am not a fan of the author. But because the book got a lot of great reviews, I am planning to have my own copy so that I can read it too. Hopefully, I'll have free time next week so I can share my own thought about the book.

    as if at any moment you may get the "absurd good news."

    Yes, life has difficulties. But why not choose optimism?

    Embodying this philosophy feels wonderful. It is in this spirit I welcome you to my BLOG, where we revel in our world that includes tiramisus and tsunamis, salamanders that molt old skin and humans who shed old stories and sashay into new ways of being present.

    Here's to cultivating a life of peak experiences that includes shadow & light!
