    Reconnect With Yourself

    Written by C. A. Kobu in Self-Discovery + Mindfulness

    Welcome, fellow creative! If you're new here, you may want to subscribe forupdates.

    Thanks for visiting!

    A few of the questions youre about to read will really disturb you. Some of them will

    cause you to lose your current focusand delve into dreamlike thoughts. And some of

    them will touch a sore spot in your heart youve been covering for too long. Needless

    to say, youll be all shook up.

    But no matter how difficult it may be, be honest with yourself when answering the

    questions. The more you know about yourself, the better you will translate your

    thoughts and emotions into your creative work.

    Your inner self is a deep drilling-well, which is the real source of your creative flow.

    But insight and wisdom are not all youll discover there. Youll also find much blood,sweat and tears.

    Youll get closer to the essence of your true self as long as you keep asking and

    digging. No harm will ever come from discovering and understanding yourself at a

    deeper level. Things will click and fall into place.

    You know those aha! moments, right? Theyre priceless!

    After reading the questions below, take a printout, cuddle in a cozy corner

    and spend some intimate time with yourself.

    Try doing this exercise whenever you feel the need to reconnect with yourself,

    especially when you feel stuckor youre at a crossroads on your creative journey. Its

    interesting to observe yourself while answering the questions. Some of them aim for

    very subjective answers. And thats the trick! (Hint: There are no right or fixed

    answers. And it pays off to mull over why you answer a question in a certain way.)
