This is Danielle LaPorte’s Burning Question today and it could not be more appropriate. We just finished a whole week of exploring this, with love and creativity and special magic tools, in the Creative Dream Incubator.
If you don’t know how it will feel to have your dream – you’re never going to get there.
So let’s do this!
I want my new DreamLoft to feel like I have all the space in the world to explore and stretch.
I want the Creative Journaling Tent in my new DreamLoft to feel like creative renewal, a safe cocoon and instant bliss.
I want running my business to feel like giggling, creative journaling and that magical powerful feeling of creative visioning.
I want my body to feel smooth and energized, like after a long walk on a not-too-cold, not-too-hot, not-too-sunny, not-too-cloudy day.
I want my bank accounts to feel like giant magnets for all things good.
I want my friendships to feel like great big open meadows with flowers and streams and trees and big fluffy white clouds in the perfect sky blue sky.
I want this new project I’m working on to feel like a giant celebration, exploding out into the world like fireworks.
I want my new Top Secret Creative Superhero group to feel like magic wands and flying capes and everything is possible.
How do you want it all to feel?
FEBRUARY 2012: MONTH OF CLARITY, FOCUS + DIRECTION
A lack of Clarity, Focus + Direction creates 2 main problems:
1. Lack of vision that includes a clear path of how to get from where you are to where you want to be.
2. Unruly Inner Critics (or fears, monsters, goblins, gremlins, etc) have free reign to sabotage you and your dreams in direct and in-direct (they can be sooooo sneaky!) ways.
And I have three solutions:
Creative Dreams may sound like fluff and unicorns and rainbows…but they’re far from it. You know that your Big Dream requires strength, courage & commitment. It also requires a plan. This Kit will help you map out a plan even a unicorn would approve of — with creative visualization & mind-mapping techniques that build bridges & paths out of pure, blank paper.
Your Inner Critic is like a washed-up paper-pusher, who seriously needs a new job. Learn how to talk to your Inner Critic (a notoriously poor communicator — no wonder he never got promoted!) and give him the boot…so an encouraging & supportive new colleague can take his place!
Let’s do this!

This got me really thinking. Today I followed your link on facebook to Scott Douglas film about the lake Winnipeg. I was reminded that nothing is granted for ever. Each time I think about the ecosystem I feel insignificant and potentially harmful for nature and I regret to be born. I shrink into a dark place while trying not to disturb anyone or anything in the world. And this is not even a solution because if I died suddenly at 32 this would be a major disaster for a lot of people that really love me. So I have to work on this thing. That it is obvious that by living I will disturb something. And I want to feel inside while living my dreams that my dreams contribute to the world in a positive manner. Because each time I feel negative about myself I shrink into a dark place and this possibly can harm the world even more at my scale.
Yes I want to feel inside that even if I live I’m not that bad. And that is not a really powerful way of saying it. A more powerful way to say it would be : I want to feel that I was born to contribute to the world at my scale and I want to live my dreams while I’m alive, and stay mindful and aware about what it brings to the world.
I was searching for clues about what was right or wrong in this fight between negative and positive thoughts. I asked my inner counselor – which is the new job I’ve found for my inner critic thanks to Andrea’s great course. I took a shower in order to wash the harmful feelings away.
Then I opened my mailbox and found this quote of Herbie Hancock in it :
“You would not exist if you did not have something to bring to the table of life.”
Sometimes (and very often indeed) I need such reminders and I wanted to share this synchronicity with you.
This really got me thinking extra too, and I will be journalling about this during the week–thanks, Andrea! Some words that come to mind as far as feeling & more for making my dreams come true– more magic in my life, increased energy, confident, playful, supportive creative friends, nurturing creative space, fun, revenue that allows me to live by my art and also give back, live greater in tune to the sensual rhythms of the earth & life… I’ve got some work to do. ;o)
I started going through some of the links on Danielle’s page about the burning questions (I am also participating) just to see what sort of women read Danielle Laporte. Glad I did – lots of strong, powerful women out there – I AM NOT ALONE!
