Creativity Requires Self-Regulation

When we are regulated, we are able to connect deeply and honestly with ourselves and others. We are present and engaged, even if we are uncomfortable. Regulation is not about muscling through anxiety, provocation, or fear. Regulation is knowing and trusting yourself to calmly move through any scenario. It is in this state of connected calm that we can be curious. And when we are curious, we are at the starting line of a growth mindset. Cultivate habits that help you practice regulation in low stakes environments so you can maintain regulation in high stakes situations. What helps you stay regulated so you can unlock your creative genius?
