As a creator, you have the power to bring your ideas to life and impact the world in a meaningful way. However, this power can only be fully realized when you feel powerful within yourself. Feeling powerful as a creator is not about external validation or recognition. It is about having an attitude of confidence, discipline, and playfulness. In this article, we will explore a step-by-step process to feeling powerful as a creator.
1. Attitude and effort
The first step to feeling powerful as a creator is to cultivate the right attitude. This means adopting a mindset of abundance, optimism, and possibility. Believe that there is enough space in the world for your creativity and that your ideas can make a difference. Focus on the positive aspects of your work and celebrate your successes, no matter how small they may be.
2. Discipline and play plus full Integration = Serious play
Step 2 integrates serious play. Creativity requires discipline and play. The discipline to show up every day and do the work, even when you don't feel like it. And the playfulness to experiment, take risks, and have fun with your ideas. Find a balance between the two, and don't take yourself too seriously.
3. Build a life that sings
As a modern musician you are the producer and the orchestrator. Design and compose a life that sings. To feel powerful as a creator, you need to build a life that supports your creativity. This means creating a lifestyle that nourishes your mind, body, and soul. Take care of your physical health, cultivate healthy relationships, and prioritize your mental wellbeing. Make time for the things that bring you joy and inspiration.
4. Find purpose
To create meaningful work, you need to have a sense of purpose. Take time to reflect on what motivates you and what impact you want to have on the world. When you have a clear purpose, it becomes easier to stay focused and motivated in your creative endeavors.
5. Create blueprints
Before you start creating, it's helpful to have a blueprint in place. This could be an outline, a mind map, or a detailed plan. Having a blueprint helps you stay organized and focused, and it gives you a roadmap to follow when you encounter challenges or setbacks.
6. Own your vision

Your creative vision is unique to you. Don't be afraid to own it and share it with the world. When you have a clear vision, it becomes easier to make decisions, set goals, and stay on track.
7. Become your true self
Your creativity is a reflection of who you are. Embrace your uniqueness and allow it to shine through in your work. Don't try to be someone else or follow someone else's formula for success. Be true to yourself and trust that your authenticity will resonate with your audience.
8. Live the modern musician lifestyle
As a creator, your work is an extension of your lifestyle. Live the modern musician lifestyle and have the best of all worlds custom designed to your preferences and desires. You build the world around your true self. A lifestyle that aligns with your creative values and supports your work. This upgrade usually mean simplifying your life, decluttering your physical space, and creating daily routines and practices that nurtures your creativity and productivity.
9. Set up targets for the day
To make progress towards your goals, you need to set targets for yourself. These could be daily, weekly, or monthly targets. Make them specific, measurable, and achievable. When you have targets in place, it becomes easier to stay focused and motivated.
10. Implement your daily disciplines
Discipline is the key to success as a creator. Implement daily disciplines that support your creative work. This could be setting aside a specific time of day for creative work, or creating a daily writing or drawing practice. When you make your creative work a daily habit, it becomes easier to make progress and see results.
