MY SPARK OF GENIUS?
11 Genius Thrives When Our Backs are Against the Wall.
The most productive days of our lives
are those when our backs are against the wall.
It is inevitable that we all
will be put in a situation
where our genius must be
fully tapped in order to meet
a challenge we are given.
And, more often than not,
that genius inside of us
will stay hidden until
we create an environment
and a situation for it to emerge.
That environment
will be one where our minds,
energy and spirit can be focused
and then we wait for the magic to happen.
When we are given (or we create) a deadline
and others are counting on us to deliver,
we will find that we will come to the point of genius more easily.
We’ve all had our backs against the wall at one time or another
and we know what it feels like to have to deliver
and what happens when that deadline looms.
A deadline is not a negative.
Having to get something done can be a positive.
There is a reason that we see creative projects come together
at the last minute.
We can help ourselves by planning, gathering what we need,
collaborating where we need to so, and then setting a point
where we feel the pressure and our back gets put against the wall.
