Prompt yourself to be more creative

If you’ve used Chat GPT, you’ll know how powerful a good prompt can be.
You ask it a good question.
It gives you a good answer.
The same applies to ourselves.
We can prompt our own minds to find the best answers.
When faced with a tough decision, I often give myself this prompt:
What would my badass warrior version do?
Many of us go through life thinking we’re stuck in a rigid personality.
Our teachers, parents and peers told us that we were _______.
Or we were _________.
And we believed it.
Hook, line and sinker.
We’re not limited like that. We only think we are.
The truth is we’re composed of multiple personalities.
Multiple personalities carry you where a single identity keeps you stuck.
Why is this true?
Because we’re creative. That’s what makes us human.
We ask ourselves the right questions, and our creative minds fire up like burners on a jet.
That’s why we get so frustrated and can’t make good decisions when we rely on that ONE, moody, and defensive personal identity to show us the way.
Because we’re being the opposite of creative - the opposite of human.
We can transcend our limits by asking the right questions.
What would the warrior version of you do?
You’ll find what I often find:
You’re more courageous, capable, and determined than you think.
And all you needed to do was tap into that warrior energy.
Finding creative breakthroughs like this becomes a lot easier when a rigid, singular identity does not entwine us.
‘I am this’ keeps you trapped.
My Untethered Mind course guides you through a series of powerful insights that rewire your mind to operate from a limitless place.
A place of open-identity that ensures you’re more creative and less stressed, more of the time.
