Speaker 1: Creativity is an addiction, unplugged because we will always say
yes to creativity, totally uncut because we all make mistakes.
So let's turn it into a tool. This is arrow
unplugged stream thinking. It's learning how to trust what's in
your present. To get there requires practice. I do one
sheet of paper a day. Just give me ten minutes
writing about whatever is moving through your presence of right now,
with absolutely no judgment. Stream thinking sharpens your skills as
a listener, communicator, and as an activator, learning how to
trust what is right now. This is stream thinking today.
We're reading from July thirty, twenty twenty three. I was
stepping into a brand new book of writing, and it's
always very tough for my creative touch because out of habit,
we build a relationship with how we place our fingertips
on the places of release. Even the size of the
writing book changes the perception of thought becoming reality. The
last stream thinking journal was with me for just over
three years. The textures have changed and so have the stories.
Especially with this particular writing book. It's unlike anything I've
written in before. Life is no different. We get focused
and used to the people, the food, the experiences, and
then something new is introduced, and as the receiver, we're
invited to grow with the new movement and moment and
do all we can to not run away. This particular
writing book, I found it in the most odd ball place,
in the very place that inspired me to create a
podcast on iHeartRadio, iTunes and Spotify called View from the
Writing Instrument. I believe that the reason why people do
not release their writing is because they're hiding it. They're
keeping it away from other people's judgment. And that's what
this book was. It was found in a box. It
was given to me on my birthday in two thousand
and six. I picked it up on July thirtyth twenty
twenty three and decided to write in it. But the
texture of the book is what caught me by shock
and surprise. Because all of those years hidden away in
a box, it grew its own texture. It aged. The
pages are very brittle, but I made a choice on
that particular day that it had to be written in.
My friends they wrote a little note. It was in
two thousand and six. They said, welcome to a brand
new year. Perfectly okay with the fact that you would
like to dance with the inner child chasing a butterfly shadow.
We wish you health, wealth and always forever friends. Wow
in a box hidden away until that one day in
the future. The texture changed, and I think, like I said,
it compares to real life situations. It used to being
with the same people, eating the same food, doing the
same things over and over again. And when something new
is introduced, the texture has changed, and inside that moment
of feeling it with your fingertips and your emotions, you
make a choice to pick it up or to walk
away in a box. For all those years from two
thousand and six to twenty twenty three, the very reason
why I created View from the writing instrument because I
too am a hyder writer. I'm Aaron and that's stream thinking.
