After this the process of implementing this idea also requires persistence, patience and ability to convince the stakeholders. Most of us are in a hurry to finish things and this discipline does not come naturally to us.

Thinking is crucial to help us survive, to organise our activity yet it does not seem to be the crucial factor in creativity. We have to allow the creaitve process to blossom and this seems to be an emotional flowering. If we can let the Deeper feelings out to play, then the mind can do its busy stuff and then later make things, one way or another. It can be difficult for us serious grown-ups to give oursleves permission to play.

It seems to me that an unintended residue byproduce of the capitalist system is Franticness. The system itself constantly stimulates competition and unmet meeds which creates a kind of pervasive low great Franticness. The result is that we don't' have time to think and we don't have time to feel and we don't have time to think about how we feel. The result is an inablity to listen to the much softer inner voice which includes our intuition. We can still create from a place of Franticness but is what we are creating what we really want to put out in the world?
