SPARK Founder Kimberly Lahodney Encouraging Others the Find the Hidden Silver Lining of the Pandemic for Life and Business
AUGUSTA, Ga. - April 5, 2023 - PRLog -- In the midst of the pandemic, many business professionals, parents, and creators found themselves in a unique situation. Forced to stay home, they finally had the time and space to bridge the gap between their creative desires and work life.
SPARK Movement founder Kimberly Lahodny is encouraging professionals to seek out their creative potential for professional and personal development. She states,
"For years, society has shamed us as children to grow out of creation. We were told that it was time to focus on our studies, careers, and other responsibilities. However, the collective stress of the nation and the loss of intellectual and physical ground in kids' lives have shown us the importance of creativity. Creating for others versus creating for ourselves makes a significant difference. We have been created to create, to put our mark on history, and to speak into the darkness to make something beautiful from nothing.
As women writers, actors, singers, and dancers, many of us are told that we hit a certain age and that it's over. But that's nonsense. We are made of the stuff of wonder, and we must reclaim it. Whether we're stuck in a small town with no arts to speak of or working a money-making career with no creative outlet, we must pursue creative fervor to live a life of artistry again."
As the world becomes increasingly complex and unpredictable, the ability to think outside the box and come up with innovative solutions has become more important than ever. Fortunately, everyone has the potential to be creative - and those who cultivate this skill can reap a variety of rewards, from improved mental health to enhanced professional success.
Studies have shown that engaging in creative activities such as painting, writing, dance, acting, and playing music can boost mood, lower stress levels, and even reduce the risk of certain diseases. Being creative allows individuals to express themselves in new and different ways, leading to a sense of personal fulfillment and expanded self-awareness.
But creative pursuits also have practical benefits. Those who are able to come up with unique solutions to problems are highly valued in today's job market, and entrepreneurs who are able to think creatively are often able to build successful businesses from the ground up. Additionally, the ability to approach challenges with a fresh perspective can help individuals overcome obstacles and achieve their goals - even when the odds seem stacked against them.
The SPARK Movement teaches others how to pursue creativity in our exceedingly busy lives, and how to incorporate the benefits of creativity into our personal, professional, spiritual, and financial lives.
"The SPARK Movement encourages us to surrender to our creative genius, pursue enchantment, align and act, return to wonder, and keep our promise. We must embrace our creative spark, even if we're not professional artists. This is the hidden silver lining of the pandemic that we must all embrace."
So whether you're a professional artist, a busy executive, or just someone looking to live a more fulfilling life, cultivating your creativity is one of the best investments you can make. By exploring new ideas, taking risks, and refusing to be bound by convention, you may just discover the key to unlocking your full potential - and transforming your life in ways you never thought possible.
