The Secret Weapon of the Creator:

The Power of the Mind

Welcome back to Adapt The Canvas! I'm excited to share with you some processes that have had life-changing results with my students. The strategies and concepts I will discuss are the very same ones I use in my weekly coaching session NLR, and I've seen firsthand how they can lead to creativity, productivity, and success.

As creatives, it's easy to fall into the trap of valuing productivity over our own well-being. We become consumed by deadlines, self-doubt, and comparison, often forgetting that a calm mind is a powerful tool in the creative process. That's why in this blog post, we'll delve into the transformative benefits of cultivating a calm mind and how it can positively impact our creative work. Inspired by the enlightening conversations in the Adapt the Canvas podcast, we'll explore a range of techniques for achieving a calm mind, including meditation, journaling, and nature walks. So, let's embark on this journey together and discover how a calm mind can help us take our creativity to the next level.

• Calm Mind, More Done.
• Practice mindfulness daily.
• Meditation increases productivity.
• Calm down and allow flow.
• Make time to relax.
• Take time to pause.
• A calm mind brings creativity.
• Explore beyond thinking.
• Adapt to succeed.

So let's dive in and explore the power of these ideas!

## Calm Mind, More Done.

The power of the mind is one of the most overlooked tools in the creative process. It can be difficult to control the environment, the weather, and other people, but one of the most basic tools we have control over is our own reactions. A calm mind is a powerful tool that can help us create something unique and undiscovered.

When we are in a busy and stress-filled state, it can be difficult to create something that is meaningful and impactful. The creative process requires a relaxed and tranquil environment, and this is where the power of the calm mind comes in. A calm mind can help us to access different levels of insight and creativity, allowing us to create something that has never been seen before.

The calm mind works at a different pace, allowing us to tap into a different frequency and environment. Time can pass quickly when we are in this state, and we can access opportunities that we wouldn’t have otherwise. It is important to take the time to relax and find a state of inner peace, as this can help us to create something truly unique and powerful.

The power of the calm mind is one of the most important tools for creators. It can help us to access a different level of creativity and insights, allowing us to create something that has never been seen before. Taking the time to relax and find a state of inner peace can help us to unlock our true potential and create something powerful and meaningful.

## Practice mindfulness daily.

Practicing mindfulness daily is a great way to ensure that we are able to access this creative energy and use it to our advantage. Mindfulness is the practice of being present in the moment and focusing on the here and now. It allows us to take a step back from our thoughts, feelings, and emotions and observe them without judgment. This can help us to detach from our thoughts and feelings and gain a greater understanding of our inner selves.

Mindfulness can help us to stay focused and productive, as well as reduce stress and anxiety. It can help us to stay in the present moment, rather than worrying about the future or ruminating on the past. This can help us to stay focused on the task at hand and be more productive. Additionally, mindfulness can help us to reduce stress and anxiety, as it allows us to take a step back and observe our thoughts and feelings without judgment.

Mindfulness can also help us to be more creative and tap into our inner flow state. When we are in a state of flow, we are able to access a different level of understanding and access information from the past, present, and future. This can help us to come up with new ideas and create something that has never been seen before.

Overall, mindfulness is a powerful tool that can help us to stay focused and productive, reduce stress and anxiety, and access our inner flow state. Taking the time to practice mindfulness daily can help us to unlock our true potential and create something powerful and meaningful.

## Meditation increases productivity.

Meditation is a form of mindfulness that has been around for centuries, and its benefits have been proven time and time again. It is a powerful tool that can help us to increase our productivity and achieve our goals.

When we practice meditation, we are able to bring a sense of calm and clarity to our lives. We can learn to be present in the moment and become aware of our thoughts, feelings, and emotions. This allows us to be more mindful of our actions and decisions, as well as our reactions to our environment. We can become more aware of our limitations, and use this awareness to make better choices that will lead to increased productivity.

Meditation also helps to reduce stress and anxiety. When we are stressed and anxious, our minds become overwhelmed with negative thoughts and feelings. This can lead to us feeling overwhelmed and unable to focus on the task at hand. By taking the time to practice meditation, we can learn to manage our stress and anxiety levels, allowing us to remain productive and focused on our goals.

Finally, meditation can help us to access our inner flow state. This is a state of deep concentration where we can be completely immersed in the task at hand and completely focused on the present moment. This allows us to be more productive and creative, as we are able to tap into our inner resources and access our full potential.

In conclusion, meditation is a powerful tool that can help us to increase our productivity and achieve our goals. It allows us to bring a sense of calm and clarity to our lives, reduce stress and anxiety, and access our inner flow state. Taking the time to practice mindfulness daily can help us to unlock our true potential and create something powerful and meaningful.

## Calm down and allow flow.

The idea of calming down and allowing flow is an important concept that can help us to access our creative potential. In a creative project, it’s important to think about how you’re going to create the project. Visualization, meditation, and breathing exercises can help to clear the mind and open up access to the super consciousness and the unconscious mind. By doing this, we can tap into the flow state, which allows us to access the 94-96% of our available awareness and consciousness that is not normally accessible.

In this state, we can access our unconscious behavior and the inspiration to take action. We can also practice certain skills and activities until they become instinctual, which can lead to moments of magic when we’re in the flow. When we’re creating something, we can get out of our own way and allow the natural flow to take over. We can do this by going into a meditative state before we start, by doing deep breathing, and by lighting incense.

By calming down and allowing flow, we can access our deepest potential and create something powerful and meaningful. It is a process that requires practice and patience, but the rewards are worth it.

## Make time to relax.

In today’s fast-paced world, it can be hard to find time to relax. We are constantly bombarded with tasks, deadlines, and obligations that can leave us feeling overwhelmed and exhausted. It can be difficult to make time for ourselves and our own well-being.

However, it is important to make time to relax and unwind. Relaxation can provide us with clarity, focus, and creativity. When we are relaxed, we are in a better state of mind to tackle our obligations and tasks. It can also improve our physical and mental health.

One way to relax is to go out into nature. Nature has a calming effect on us, allowing us to reset and recharge. Taking a walk in the park, going to the beach, or simply sitting in the sun can help us to relax and reconnect with ourselves. We can also take time to meditate, which can help us to clear our minds and become more mindful of our thoughts and emotions.

We can also use audio to help us relax. Listening to calming music, audiobooks, or podcasts can help us to relax and find some peace. This can be especially helpful when we are on the go and don’t have the time to take a break.

Making time to relax is essential for our well-being. It can help us to stay focused, creative, and productive. It also helps us to stay healthy and balanced. So make sure to take some time for yourself and relax.

## Take time to pause.

In today's busy world, it can be difficult to find time to pause and relax. We often feel like we have to keep going, and that taking a break is a sign of weakness. But this couldn't be further from the truth. Taking time for yourself can be incredibly beneficial for your physical and mental health.

When we pause, we give ourselves the opportunity to take a step back and look at our lives from a different perspective. We can reflect on our thoughts and feelings and gain clarity on our current situation. This can help us to identify any areas of our lives that we need to work on and make positive changes.

When we pause, we also give our minds a chance to rest. We can take a break from all the stress and pressure that we feel and take some time to just be. This can help us to feel more relaxed and centered.

In addition to taking time to pause and relax, we can also use language to program our experience. We can use language to identify our experience and confirm it. This helps our minds to look for more of the same experience. For example, if we say that we want to be calm, our minds will figure out how to be calm.

It is also important to remember that we don't have to believe something for it to be true. This is the beauty of being an infinite being. We can choose any experience we want in this dimension. We can choose to have the experience we want based on our beliefs, values, and experience.

Taking time to pause is an important part of self-care. It can help us to stay focused, creative, and productive. It can also help us to stay healthy and balanced. So make sure to take some time for yourself and relax.

## Calm mind brings creativity.

In this day and age, it can be hard to find time to relax. We are constantly bombarded with information and tasks, and it can be easy to get overwhelmed. We can easily find ourselves going from one task to the next without taking a break. We are constantly in reaction mode, and it can be hard to stay in control.

However, taking time to relax and decompress can be incredibly beneficial. It can help us to tune into what is important to us and to stay focused on our goals. Taking a few minutes to meditate or go for a walk can be incredibly helpful in allowing our minds to relax and to be open to creativity.

Creativity is something that can be found in all of us. Even if you don’t think of yourself as creative, you are creative in the way you think and express yourself. Taking time to relax and decompress can help to open up the creative pathways in our minds and allow us to explore new ideas.

It can also be helpful to have some tools to help you relax and get into a creative mindset. Meditation music or guided meditations can be incredibly helpful in helping you relax and get into a creative flow. It can also be helpful to take a few minutes to observe nature, listen to the birds, and get tuned in.

Ultimately, taking time to relax and decompress can be incredibly beneficial in helping us to stay focused, creative, and productive. It can help us to stay healthy and balanced, and to explore new ideas and get into a creative flow. So make sure to take some time for yourself and relax.

## Explore beyond thinking.

But what if you want to go beyond just relaxation and get into a creative mindset? What if you want to explore beyond thinking? That is where creativity and imagination come in.

Creativity is the process of producing something new and unique. It is the ability to come up with ideas, solutions, and products that are new and original. It is an important skill to have and can be used in many different areas, from art and design to business and marketing.

Imagination is the ability to create mental images, ideas, and sensations that are not real or present. It is the ability to think of something that does not exist, or to create something that has never been seen before. It is an important part of creativity, as it allows us to explore beyond what is already known.

Einstein once said that knowledge is limited to what we already know, whereas imagination is infinite and tied to the universe and its mysteries. This means that when we use our imagination, we can explore beyond our current understanding and think outside the box.

Creativity and imagination can be used together to explore beyond thinking. When we explore beyond thinking, we can come up with new ideas and solutions that are creative and innovative. We can also use our imagination to come up with new products and services that are unique and exciting.

The key to exploring beyond thinking is to take the time to relax and decompress. Take some time for yourself to get into a creative mindset and explore your imagination. Also, make sure to join a creative platform such as Wednesday's Workout or the Creators Platform. These platforms can provide support and structure to help you take your creativity and imagination to the next level.

Exploring beyond thinking is an important part of the creative journey. It can help us to come up with new and innovative ideas, products, and solutions. It can also help us to think outside the box and come up with ideas that are unique and exciting. So make sure to take some time for yourself and explore beyond thinking.

## Adapt to succeed.

It is also important to adapt in order to succeed. Adapting to changing circumstances can be difficult, but it is necessary in order to survive and thrive in an ever-changing world. It is important to be able to recognize and embrace change and to find ways to use it to our advantage.

One example of adapting to succeed is the podcast, Adapt the Canvas. This podcast is a great example of how to use change to our advantage. The podcast is about how to use new and innovative ideas to create success. It is about learning to take risks and to think outside the box. It is about learning to embrace change and to use it to our advantage.

In conclusion, adapting to succeed is an important part of the creative journey. It is important to be able to recognize and embrace change and to find ways to use it to our advantage. The podcast, Adapt the Canvas, is a great example of how to use change to our advantage. The

Adapting to succeed is necessary in order to survive and thrive in an ever-changing world.

What people are saying

During the time I was a part of “Non-Linear Results” I had my assumptions and preconceived notions about what was possible challenged and blown out of the water, I experienced several “Powerful Mind Set Shifts” from the group mentoring which was then backed up with the meditations.

If you join I think you will be “challenged in the best possible way” so be prepared to open your mind and leave your existing beliefs at the door and give it time for things to fall into place as the coaching is, as the name suggests, is non-linear and “probably unlike anything else you have encountered before” and will help you level up your game.

This is powerful “Mindset Coaching” but not as you know it from an experienced music producer, one of the early pioneers of drum and bass who has the “Experience and the Knowledge to back it up” so you’re in the very best hands.

Best regards,

My year with “Non-Linear Results” has been a brilliant journey. To connect with K and like-minded people every week and commit to looking after myself better has “Produced Huge Mindset Shifts Over Time.” I leave infinitely more in touch with myself, “Able to Gradually, Systematically Work Towards My Goals, whilst riding out difficult periods in the creative process.

Since joining Adapt The Canvas and the “Non-Linear Results” group.

I have just found another wind for my “Personal Self Motivation.”

K’s Coaching and Mentoring skills are Next Level.

He has first-hand experience in whatever it is you’re struggling with,

and can pretty much relate to anything.

He has helped me to “Focus on My Goals and Really Helped Me Zone in On What I Want To Do and Achieve”.

I would highly recommend this platform to anybody who is at a crossroads in their life

and is ready to put the work into change.

“This Group Has Helped Me Find My Centre Again”.
Thank you, K
