Masterpiece: Something superlative of its kind; anything done or made with extraordinary skill; a capital performance; a supreme achievement. An extraordinary example for excellence.
If you could paint anything on the canvas of your life, what supreme achievement would you create as your legacy for others to stand in awe of?
Leaders and innovators have the ability to step back from the canvas of their lives like an artist gaining perspective. They make their lives a work of art - an individual masterpiece.
The first step to being the artist of your own life is all about taking responsibility for the shape and course of your existence. That means taking responsibility for what happened in the past, taking responsibility for what's occurring right now in the present, and taking responsibility for the direction you choose to navigate into the future. When you abdicate responsibility for any of these, then circumstances will take over and you'll find regrets in your past, discomfort in your present and uncertainty awaiting you in the future.
Artistry is more than just taking responsibility, though. You can take good responsibility without necessarily exercising any creativity in your decision making. It's generally more comfortable, of course, to go with the flow of what's acceptable in your social circle - to follow trends and conventional wisdom, and to keep up with the Joneses. But is it fulfilling? On a surface level, maybe, but dig a little deeper and you'll find your own individual needs and wants, dreams and desires, passions and giftedness crying out to be allowed to be different. When you're ready to heed their cry, this is the point where you can begin to buck the trend and to shape your life with some creative decision making.
So when you think about your life as a work of art and you as the artist, do you know what kind of artwork you want to create? A masterpiece, for sure, but in what style, what detail, what vibrancy, what subject matter? And what skills will you need to develop to enable you to become a master of this style and subject matter? What are the first steps you need to take towards getting started?
But life artistry is more than just creative decision making too. Being a master life artist involves skill, practice, perseverance and dedication. Here's where having a mentor, a coach, to guide you through this process is of high value.
I will teach you a simple and easy to implement process how to develop your own inner coach, and manage your energy states and emotions, to live an authentic and empowered life, and create an easy flow to life that allows you to easily reach your goals. You will learn how to find and release your blocks, untangle your energy, and unleash your creativity and unique talents to stand in a place of power and manifest your true dreams and desires.
I won’t just ‘hand you the brushes’. I will teach you step by step how to use them, and how to create just the right combination of texture, perspective, and color on the canvas of your life, and craft an individual work of art that others will stand in awe of – a true masterpiece!
