		<description><![CDATA[Continuing our A-Z of Creative Intelligence, W is for wounds. The psychic ones, cut in childhood, from which all the others seep.
This is a long post, so you may want to get a cup of coffee and relax over reading it.  I know, I know you're very busy. Nothing like the word 'wound' to get us remembering all the things we have to do... Or that we need a drink... Or a visit to the online casino.

But anyone who is seriously engaged in creating anything needs an understanding of psychological and emotional wounds and how they operate.     ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Inspiration is always experienced as a gift (even if what we're talking about is an inspired business idea). And for it to be passed on, it must be offered as a gift (even if the outcome turns out to be wealth and recognition).

We see this dynamic most clearly in the lives of our greatest writers and artists, some of whom I will be looking at in upcoming posts as illustration. Those whose 'gift' is undeniable, who get described as 'gifted', whose work is highly inspirational.

As writers and artists, we need to know that our business is giving. 

Whoever lives from that knowledge ]]></description>

&#8216;It&#8217;s too hard.&#8217; That&#8217;s a sentence I hear a lot &#8211; in relation to creativity, to writing, to life.  &#8217;I can&#8217;t do this.  It&#8217;s too hard.&#8217;
It&#8217;s also a sentence I&#8217;ve heard myself say too often. I&#8217;ve learned enough to know that, actually, it doesn&#8217;t have to be hard. That it could probably be knock-me-down fantastic if I&#8217;d [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here's how to put yourself on your holiday gift list this year. However much or little time you're taking off, use it to really take off.  Aim to spend as much of the holiday season as possible doing things that inspire you.  And in the company of friends who inspire you -- which, of course, includes your cyber, literary, musical, artistic and celluloid friends.  Here's 10 I've lined up for me. You might fancy some of them too:]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The mystique of rock climbing is climbing; you get to the top of a rock glad it's over but really wishing it would go on forever.  The justification of climbing is climbing, like the justification of poetry is writing; you don't conquer anything except things in yourself...  The act of writing justifies poetry. Climbing is the same: recognising that you are a flow. The purpose of the flow is to keep on flowing.  ]]></description>

A key requirement of creative intelligence is accepting that ]]></description>

Remember in school when your English teacher wanted to teach you the difference between the active voice and the passive.
Active = &#8220;Johnny kicked the ball&#8221;
Passive  = &#8220;The ball was kicked by Johnny&#8221;.
The second sentence always brings to mind a reluctant Johnny sidling up to the detestable ball, barely touching his foot to it, despising it as [...]]]></description>

Try this.  For one hour a day, every day from now on, resolve to be silent.  To speak only in reply to questions asked of you.  Apart from necessary answers to direct questions, to say nothing.
Come on, it&#8217;s just one hour.
Silence is far more powerful than we generally allow.  Unlike sound &#8211; and most everything else in our world &#8211; [...]]]></description>
