S1E6: Episode 6- Build a Bridge

from The Common Creative Hosted by Paul Fairweather and Chris Meredith

Build a Bridge - Episode 6 of The Common Creative Many of us harbour a secret desire to create something or do something a bit different but “life” seems to get in the way. In this episode, Chris shares a story about how he discovered how to unlock his secret passion for photography via a ‘moment of clarity’ while motorcycling across the Sydney Harbour Bridge. The lessons for creatives everywhere are: Allow the mind to wander - whether on a motorbike, swimming in the sea or gazing out of the window of an aircraft. In a semi-meditative state, the mind goes to new and exciting places and it’s vital to allow time for ‘mental wandering’ and to recognise the power of the ideas that are generated Make it till you make it. The barriers to achieving the next goal are in the mind. Lack of money, time or talent are often excuses rather than the underlying reasons that a new idea or next project doesn’t happen.
