Dear Fellow Entrepreneur:

Do you have tons of ideas for projects, products, and services that could make the world a better place?  Do you get a thrill out of those "aha moments" of life and have an intense desire to share what you've discovered with others? 

Have you ever felt disgusted with yourself when you didn't run with a big idea fast enough and a few months later saw someone else turn the same idea into a screaming success? Have you experienced the exhilaration of a new idea only to have your zest for it wane as it came time to implement all the details to make it happen?

If this describes you, you very well could be an Inspired Creative. Imagine with me for a moment that heaven is raining down ideas -- all kinds of technological, scientific, self-growth, medical, artistic, and spiritual truth. It's all being broadcast across the earth, trusting that someone who resonates with each idea will take action upon it and follow through.  

Everyone has the capability of tapping in to this broadcast system. Some people are more receptive to the broadcast than others. Some are more likely to take action then their neighbors.  

There is a small percentage of the population who are almost hardwired to this "channel of ideas." These people love to inspire others with the insights that come to them through their hardwire to inspiration.  

Lisa Rae Preston, the creator of the STEP Into Destiny Test, refers to these folks as Potentials. About 35 percent of the population have either a primary or secondary core passion of Potential. But only 10% of the population are primary Potentials.  

What I refer to as Inspired Creatives (aka Potentials) have so many ideas, they find it almost impossible to pick one. If you ask an Inspired Creative to select his favorite movie, for example, he'd have a hard time doing so. He might find it equally difficult to select only one "best friend." He would never want to narrow the possibilities to just one of anything.  

Inspired Creatives (aka Potentials) are hooked up to heaven's channel of inspiration like a fire hose. They get so many ideas, it would be impossible for one person to implement them all.  

While having a hardwire to inspiration sounds like a wonderful advantage (and it is), there are downsides for the Inspired Creatives of the world.

The typical Inspired Creative assumes the immense flow of ideas she has are all for her. She may think every idea that comes along should be followed-through upon. How overwhelming is that? How in the world would she know where to start? And when you encourage the Inspired Creative to "just pick one of those ideas," she feels paralyzed. In choosing one, thousands of others are rejected.  

This makes it difficult for entrepreneurial Inspired Creatives to select a niche. Because they can't select just one, they're difficult to market. They flit from one idea to the next, never laying hold on anything long enough to create a good product funnel or effectively market their expertise.  

Did you ever see Disney's Up?  In this movie, the dogs can talk and they are easily distracted. Mid-sentence their heads dart to the side as they holler, "Squirrel!" Inspired Creatives often suffer from chronic Squirrel Syndrome. 

Why is this? Ideas take time to implement. So let's say an Inspired Creative starts an idea, that doesn't mean the storm of ideas has stopped coming for her.  

That's why an Inspired Creative with a project is easily distracted onto something else mid-stream before ever taking her initial idea to completion. Sometimes Inspired Creatives assume they are ADD, when really it's not a physical or chemical malady, but a lack of understanding of how their minds work.  

The typical Inspired Creative has a tough time following an idea through to completion because she can become bored with it before it's implemented. This happens for two reasons. First, the Inspired Creative thrives on inspiration. There's a "high" associated with a new idea, and she's like an "inspiration junkie." While the idea is new and fresh, her passion fuels her energy and propels her forward. But once the idea has become old and "stale" she's looking for the next big idea... her next "high."  

Another reason the Inspired Creative becomes bored is that there is a cycle to creativity and one of the phases in it is a Rest phase that feels like  

• apathy,

• boredom and

• a diminished connection to inspiration.

Inspiration doesn't completely cease for these individuals, but it can feel like it's slowed to a trickle. For the Inspired Creative (who is used to a firehose flow) it may as well have ceased.  The withdrawals are intense and can even look like depression!

If an Inspired Creative doesn't successfully launch and implement an idea before reaching the Rest phase, she may abandon the idea completely.  

There Is a Solution!

You CAN Stay Focused, Complete Your Big Ideas,
AND Generate Income from Them!

When an Inspired Creative learns the natural ebbs and flows of her creative cycle, she can work with nature, instead of against it.  

• Imagine the increased passion and energy you'll enjoy when you know you're living your life purpose!

• Imagine what it would be like to take your big ideas to the finish line and reap the rewards from them!

• Image what it would be like to know what ideas to pursue and which ones are taking you off task like "Squirrels!"

If you're an Inspired Creative who would like to work with passion and purpose in a focused direction that fulfills your creativity, I have something special just for you!
