After all, most of the time, we live life in rational-mode; a mental state in which we\u2019re constantly interacting and intervening with what\u2019s going on around us. And learning to be more present means training our ability to observe without intervening. This is because when we intervene with external events, we tend to do so in auto-pilot mode, hence we stop giving ourselves the opportunity to perceive what\u2019s really happening in the present moment in order for our brain to make new neural connections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But, why be more creative?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First, it\u2019s one of the most relevant and most desirable skills in today\u2019s job market in all areas, as recognised by the World Economic Forum. Those who are more creative find it easier to see new solutions to problems and challenges in their personal lives too, resulting in increased optimism and resilience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Okay, so how does being more present boost our creativity?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Being present means that your five senses are more tuned in to what is happening in the \u201chere and now\u201d; you\u2019re more open to receiving  (mainly auditory, visual and tactile) information that connects you to what you\u2019re doing. This helps you perceive how to overcome challenges linked to the task at hand and gain insights into how to resolve problems and innovate within your professional area, even if not immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, how can we tune our senses in to what\u2019s going on, and train our mental attitude to process, with minimal prior judgement, the information that is received by our central nervous system?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One way we can do this is by training the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Appreciate \u2013 recognise the value of the present moment, and recognise that this is the only moment available to us to act; the only time moment in which we can choose to live.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Give meaning \u2013 understand the purpose of what you\u2019re doing or the given moment within a larger context (in relation to your personal \/ professional goal).&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Relativise \u2013 seek another perspective, another way of looking at what you\u2019re experiencing, a point of view that will allow you to perceive what you\u2019ve never perceived, and construct new associations or combine ideas in a new way.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Connect \u2013 build connections with others in relation to a given task or activity \u2013 be open to hearing and understanding the people with whom you\u2019re sharing the present moment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Meditate \u2013 practise reducing mental noise and learn the importance of pauses for your capacity to create as well as for your mental health.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is what training our ability to be present can produce: a mental and emotional state of mind in which we feel free from preconceptions, judgements, paradigms and thoughts in order to create something new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/derosemethod.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Aline-Daher-5.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3663\" style=\"width:296px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/derosemethod.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Aline-Daher-5.png 900w, https:\/\/derosemethod.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Aline-Daher-5-300x100.png 300w, https:\/\/derosemethod.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Aline-Daher-5-768x256.png 768w, https:\/\/derosemethod.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Aline-Daher-5-18x6.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>J\u00e1 percebeu como seu potencial criativo diminui quando voc\u00ea est\u00e1 preso a uma experi\u00eancia do passado ou ansioso por um evento futuro?
