Creative Block; Are You Standing in Your Own Light?

When Alexander the Great visited Diogenes and asked whether he could do anything for the famed teacher, Diogenes replied: “Only stand out of my light.” Perhaps some day we shall know how to heighten creativity. Until then, one of the best things we can do for creative men and women is to stand out of their light – John W. Gardner (1912 – 2002)

Sometimes the creative self yearns to express itself but doesn’t know where to begin.
