The edge of new beginnings can be a terrifyingly exciting place. A blank page is so clean and pure and what if I make a wrong move and destroy its goodness? The good news is, there’s no way to destroy art. Every time we forge a new path for ourselves, we are creating new connections, making new moves, keeping our brain active and we hope other people can see our vision. The truth is, they won’t if we don’t take the time to reach out.
Here’s what we, as innovators, can do to ensure we’re not stuck and that we are building something for the people.
Communicate
We must be secure enough in ourselves to go out there and talk about what we are creating. It’s best to find those people who will benefit from our creation and find ways to keep in touch with them.
Invite
It’s good to keep people in the loop by inviting them to Zoom events, lunches and other activities where we can show them what we are building and ask for feedback along the way.
Serve
It’s great if we can offer helpful freebies along the way. I give away a book of memoir writing prompts to those who are wanting to connect with their parents and grandparents, for example.
Please email me Eda@MyMemoirMaker.com if you would like your free booklet of prompts 🙂
Over to you…
What is something new you’re bringing into your life this year? How are you planning your communications, invitations to events and serving those who will benefit the most?
PLEASE If this article brought some intellectual sparks to you, please do realise it was the product of working with professionals who helped me, to whom I paid money. It would mean so much to me if you could show your appreciation by making a small contribution so the expenses of running a blog (like internet fees, web hosting, registration and marketing to get it out to more people who can benefit from my words) can be offset and the numbers stack up in favour of doing this work I so love.
