CREATIVITY and IDEAS

We are so consumed with what is going on at present that I thought it fitting to connect with our superpower as human beings, which is our CREATIVITY and our ability to come up with new ideas…

Here are some insights from an article written by – Dr. Marla Gottschalk an Industrial/Organizational Psychologist.

Like most people, I find it intrinsically satisfying to share ideas that can improve how we carry out our vocation and life. But, while this exchange of ideas is a fundamental component of knowledge and life — bringing those ideas to life can prove challenging. Many of us have the opportunity to share ideas; whether in team meetings, online conferences or brainstorming sessions. But, what really happens to all of those promising ideas once collected?

While we place great emphasis on innovation in today’s world — the fact remains that many worthy ideas will never see the light of day. I would venture to say that many organizations have a back-log of great ideas, untouched and undeveloped. Ultimately, we do a good job of generating ideas. But utilizing them effectively… now that can be quite a different story.

Forward progress is just as much about managing the ideas we generate, than any other element in the dynamic. Many worthy ideas fail to become reality, because we fail to utilize a process robust enough to properly select and implement them effectively. In many cases, we are hindered as to how to wade through that mountain of collected ideas. One key problem is the tendency to view idea management as a spontaneously occurring event — when in fact; we need to employ a winning process to ensure success. A few topics to consider:

• Build Trust.

In the cultural scheme, if there isn’t an adequate level of trust and co-operation within a team, it is nearly impossible to evaluate and implement ideas effectively. To begin evaluating ideas, the stage has to be set for an open and honest discussion. If we are wary of bucking authority and voicing all sides of the story, we can land in trouble. Pixar calls this cultural element the “Brain-trust” which is the notion of offering an “unvarnished” opinion to move idea development along effectively.

• Complete An Investigation.

Carefully consider worthy ideas that never reached their full potential — what caused this to happen? Was the idea not properly communicated? Inadequately defined roles in the field? Lack of data concerning value? Use this information strategically, going forward.

• Connect Ideas With Mission & Vision.

An idea floating in the stratosphere can have little meaning. So, offer context, to properly identify the ideas potential. Attempt to connect an idea with desired end-result that aligns with your mission and vision. How can the idea provide a route to a valued goal?

• Narrow The Field.

At some point we have to focus on the ideas that are worthy enough to devote valuable time and resources. For that to occur, you must develop selection criteria relevant to your team and the situation at hand. (For example, ideas that meet an urgent need or those with the greatest potential to impact.) Without these criteria, you cannot move forward. • Don’t look for a single “winner”. The trouble we often encounter with developing ideas is we tend to narrow the focus quite quickly to one path — when it’s likely there is more than one great idea circulating. One idea really does not have to “win”? You can often combine ideas, to enhance product development or service improvement.

• Capture Potential Value.

To drive your idea home, take the time to draft an “action case” which adds dimension and clearly outlines future benefits. This can serve as an integral step in the evaluation process.

• Find An Owner.

Yes, just like people, ideas need guidance and care to develop fully. So identify an owner — and make this choice by aligning with interests and passion. Offer the role to a team member who believes in the idea, and can envision its potential.

• Give Things Time.

Great ideas have the potential to turn the normal state of affairs “upside down” and trigger a powerful emotional response. As discussed here, ideas need to be fully digested before we can act on them effectively. Take this into consideration when delivering ideas and planning their implementation phase. A little patience may be the magic ingredient. What strategies are you utilizing to manage ideas, which in turn will bring them alive to serve our world?

What if the ART of ALCHEMY is LOVE?

Is the Vibration of LOVE Simply the Coherence of Creation?

Often, we limit our understanding of “Love” to romantic relationships. But what if Love is something far greater—an all-pervasive, living energy that surrounds our planet and fuels the very act of creation? We know that heart-to-heart connections generate unity, but Love, in its highest form, is a co-creative force—far beyond the unconscious act of reproduction.

What if every connection we make is, in essence, a loving relationship? The depth of Love we invest in our vocations, our purpose, and our daily experiences fuels not only our creativity but the very essence of our existence.

We all have access to this boundless, powerful energy, yet we often fear it. The frequency of Love touches every aspect of life—our families, friendships, work, passions, environment, and even our relationship with the planet itself. We continually express what we love and what we resist. But what if Love is more than an emotion—what if it is the very substance that sustains the universe?

Could it be that what we call GOD is simply the force of Love itself? And that we are naturally wired to create coherence—to generate more Love, more Light, more of the divine essence that I call The Christos Sophia?

Throughout life, we oscillate between two fundamental energies: Love, which equates to LIFE and LIGHT, and Fear, which can manifests as DEATH and DARKNESS. But is it truly Love that we fear? Or is it our own resistance to Life and Light? For some, it seems easier to remain disconnected from Love, Light, and the Divine, rather than surrender to a frequency so powerful that it might actually be sustaining the entire cosmos.

For me, my guiding mantra is this: “I Love The Christos Sophia First.”

When I say these words, something profound happens:

  • First, I feel an instant connection to a source that loves me unconditionally.
  • Then, I feel a deep acceptance of myself and greater compassion for others.
  • Next, I sense a powerful assurance that all things good flow from this connection.
  • Finally, I intuitively know that this feeling generates more Love, more Light, more divine presence.

Perhaps the alchemy of turning lead into gold is simply a metaphor for perfecting Love—both within and without. It is the divination of matter and spirit, the merging of the human with the divine.

This understanding is not foreign to artists, visionaries, and creators. When we immerse ourselves in the process of bringing something new into existence, we form a sacred bond with it—we Love it into being. And through that Love, we seek perfection, wholeness, and expression.

This “becoming one with” is the essence of true alchemy. It is the sacred formula of transformation, requiring surrender—both of the Self and to Love itself. A true alchemist must undergo sacrifice, purification, and release of the ego-self, for at the heart of Great Work lies a singular truth:

Artist: Federico Infante

The ART of ALCHEMY is LOVE

It is the science of the Soul, the bridge between humanity and divinity, the understanding of the nature of the cosmos, the earth, and the human spirit.

For millennia, the sages, saints, and shamans have sought to harness this power—giving it names, rituals, and symbols. But in essence, they were all discovering the same truth: Love is the greatest force of all.

And this power is not beyond us—it is within us. We are hardwired to generate this miraculous force. Perhaps the ancients were right when they taught: “We must Love and acknowledge our Source first, above all else.”

It makes perfect sense. If we were created by a force fueled by Love, of course, we would Love that Source first.

Connecting to the Light of your Higher Heart

Now, more than ever, we must allow, and learn to apply the heavenly science of the Light to help humankind.

The extraordinary celestial events and the increase of Solar (Soul) activity are affecting our collective vibration, and will for many years to come. We are regularly being showered with, and emerged in more Light than ever before. These activities bring the presence of a new force emerging in our bodies and our world, a force that evokes the Christic energy that lives within our Soul, and in our cells, which manifests spiritual wonderment.

Human beings once had the ability to perceive and understand the hidden, eternal truths via an inner spiritual knowing. This spiritual knowing was given to us as a result of our innate and eternal connectivity. However, the time came when we rendered ourselves mortal and corruptible, we received our outer knowing we now call the five senses.

Indeed, at present, our inner potential is enveloped in matter to the extent that the external eye cannot see into the spiritual realms, we are deaf to the sounds of the invisible world, we have forgotten how to listen to the silence, and our speech is hindered and can barely utter the words of the sacred.

These words were once ours, and through them we communed with the elemental forces and the external world. Therefore, we must re-learn this higher way in order to develop our lost inner potentiality that allows us to perceive the hidden and eternal truths.

Divinity means the ability to transcend

It’s time for the greater truths concerning our Divine Nature to be shared throughout the world. Moreover, the Divine Light has ordained its usage so that the promise of great transformation can be brought about exactly at this time; many of us have held this space for worldwide healing since the beginning of time.

The essence of life lies in the Way of the Heart and in the conquering of our negative influences that create duality in our life. The great work in the world is acheived by restoring our social and spiritual fabric ~ And its the same law, the same order, and the same regularity, by which all beings are arranged in Nature.

This Solar activity is also magnifying our shadow attributes, we are literally being given the opportunity, over and over again, to connect to our point of light in our heart and become a pillar of Light for Humanity.

Each time we return to the Light of who we are ~ through the process of Correcting and Transforming our light and shadow attributes, we are strengthening, contributing and growing the Web of Life, which is directly connected to the Point of Light in our Higher Heart.

Our heart is literally the starting point to our own sacred geometry that connects us to everything.

After 30 years of devoted visioning, I am now in holy celebration ~ I believe we are indeed consciously participating in our own evolution at this auspicious point in human history. I know it can feel like we’re doing it hard sometimes… but if we simply stop and remind ourselves how to make the connection, we soon find our pathway through, and our heavenly heart is our reliable compass.

Our Point Of Light In The Heart Reveals Our Gift To Humanity

Our Point in the Heart is the Light placed there by the Creator and is hidden by our many human desires; Until we can surrender our egotistic desires and embrace our altruistic desire by merging with the Creator. –  Here is my discovery about that journey.

My Point of Light in my heart took me to Paris.

Our connection and gifts are unexpectedly revealed to us at a particular point in time and for a specific reason. These extraordinary encounters remind us of the power and brilliance of The Divine Living Presence: Bestowing upon us our unique configuration of the Light, a blessing and expression of our Soul’s imprint onto this world. Reminding us of the perfection of the Divine Light within us, and revealing the most precious thing we will ever have; Our Light.

This photo is so precious to me because it’s precisely one of those amazing points in time; a few years have passed since this photo – but many more divine jewels have now come to Light because of that point in my and point in time.


When we don’t truly value our gifts, we are demonstrating to the world of Light (the upper world), also known as the ‘Field of Possibility’, the ‘Field of Intent’ or the ‘Quantum Field’ – that we don’t value the true nature of the Creator or Mother -Father God –. We then become disconnected or remain disconnected and live a life of repeated suffering.In that one moment, that one elated and profound moment, I was experiencing an exclusive and intimate union with my God.

I mindfully use the words exclusive and intimate because they are precisely the way to describe the experience that created the full and sparkling reveal of my gifts at that moment. It was like I was 200% present; when you are that present, all is revealed, even the Creator. I had to turn out the window and commune with my maker. 

Looking out the window, I said, “Dear God, I am so truly and deeply grateful to have been given such a blessed life. Glory be to thee in the highest.” And So It Is.
I now know what was occurring at that moment was a significant process of “correcting and transforming”; this surrendering to the Light was recalibrating my life forever. Many life experiences were healed right then, and all my inherent gifts were revealed and activated.

I received Sanctity in that one precious moment… I am eternally grateful and forever changed by that auspicious experience. – Elizabeth Ellames

If you KNOW YOURSELF, you will TRUST YOURSELF

Most people ask this question at one point in their life. And it’s often when their life is not looking or feeling as good as they would like.

“What is the point of my life, why I am here and as any of this really matter?”

And the answer will usually be something along the lines of… 

Know Yourself
Trust Yourself
Love Yourself
And
Live Your Larger Story

But what does that really mean?

I was born with a strong impulse to share…

I share simply because I love sharing, not because I think I have some profound wisdom, but rather because I am a human being that STORY wants to move through. I have a lot to say because there is a lot to say, and there is a wealth of STORY in the cosmos keen to birth itself onto our planet at this present time.

What I have to say, is really more about the “what, why and how” of making oneself ready, willing and available for the appropriate stories to find the appropriate people.

And it is our shining spirit that story is rightly attracted to – but unfortunately, it’s the constant distractions and our addiction to the busyness that blocks our connection to our own spirit, which then creates a lack of adhesion to the powerful stories that want to find their way to our hearts. Every generation needs powerful stories to advance its evolution, but if a story doesn’t connect to the spirit of a human the story has no soul, and a story with no soul dies, which is a vulnerable place for humans to live in or grow from.

Stories are constantly knocking on our hearts to advance humanity so we can navigate our way through each generation. And without these appropriate, soulful stories our cultures can struggle to grow because they lose the ability to recognize the importance of ‘overcoming obstacles’ and the discipline to absolutely ‘protect their hope’, which ultimately fuels their vision and passion for a brighter future.

I designed the Living Attributes Typology as a tool to help women become powerful vessels so they can live their larger story, a story that they feel, is worthy of sharing and celebrating… a story that will genuinely inspire future generations.

So, peeps the term ‘know yourself’ in the Living Attributes system is associated with knowing “you”,  your history, your backstory, your true nature and how it has influenced your life. And how it can potentially inspire or add value to other peoples lives. 

The Best Way To Discover Your Purpose Is To Discover Your Story
