WORK | Follow the Leads

Creativity is a lot like a path in the wilderness.

It leads into a dark and winding brush full of unknown twists and turns.

It weaves through thick weeds, roots of trees that bump up almost on purpose beneath your foot tread, ready to trip you up and throw you flat on your face into the dense leaves.

It winds through thickets of doubts and fears.

It unravels like never ending questions, thoughts and ideas.

It reveals a trail of intrigue, curiosity and mystery.

It turns like quick u-turns and slow meandering loop de loops.

And sometimes,

It leaves you breathless, enraptured and full of endless wonder.

If there was one thing I would want to remind you of, and remind myself of at the same time…

There is no telling where creativity leads…and that is the whole point.

You follow the path not because it’s supposed to be marvellous, but because the option not to seems more daunting than the former.

Embrace the journey.

Follow the leads.
