We must trust that we can create our individual masterpieces. Nothing resonates more than your own individuality - you become your own work of art when you understand who you are, and express it in a unique and authentic way.
In the business arena, it is known as branding. Many times we walk around blind, unaware and unconscious of the work of art we truly are. We have been endowed with the power of choices that reside within us, yet all the tools and colors that make us originals have been handed over to us by others. Why not choose your own landscape, the background, the scheme of colors, the medium and your own brush strokes with consciousness and full awareness.
Create your life in way that when you stand back from the canvas and pause at it all, it is with great pride and joy in what's shaping up to be a masterpiece. Is that not the purpose of the Master who created you in the first place?
What lies between where you are now and what you want to create (your life's masterpiece) is a seed that needs to be planted in rich soil.
Creating any thing takes time, love, understanding and patience's with one else's. Like an artist, you can set out to create your own masterpiece. There are many steps involved:
- Study the Subject - examine who you are and what makes you unique.
- Identify the Big Shapes- it may look like a puzzle in the beginning - organize and arrange the pieces until shape begins to take place.
- Underpaint the Canvas - create freely your image of how you see yourself - don't worry about filling in the details, yet.
- Study the Color Values - see the value of your masterpiece (YOU) - the beauty of the image first, then work the colors in.
- Blocking in the Colors- carefully fill in the colors of your uniqueness as you see them, leaving nothing out.
- Adjusting Color and Value - make adjustments as you see them appear, don't allow other's to paint for you - a masterpiece is authentic.
- Finishing the Painting - Resist the temptation to finish it too soon, you may leave out some important shapes, colors and details. Step back, get out of the way - there will be more work to do.
Start today in creating your life's masterpiece for you and the people whose life will be enriched by it.
