Creativity. Dancing on the Edge of Possibilities.

Permit Yourself to Rebel Against the World’s Obsession with Output

Listen to the voices of this community to discover what you could learn from them and—more importantly, what they actively seek, and you might be the one who has the experience and the stories to enlighten.

Professionals talk about their specialization, careers, standards, practices, ethics, and productivity.

Communicators talk about creativity, connections, relationships, stories, and output.

Gifted adults talk about different thinking, society issues, and hundreds of ideas at the same time. That’s how their complex, overdrive brain works—faster than most and not understood by just about everyone, including them.

The one area that pulls all three into agreement and conversations about definition, nuances, and differences is creativity. We could write about creativity every week from someone else’s point of view. It never gets old. Our minds and questions are infinite.

That’s why we love the writing and thinking coming from Wout Van Helvoirt. We got permission to cross-post, which means you get the full experience, exactly as Wout designed it and meant for you to see it. His Substack, The Mavericks Manifest, is a rich experience for all the senses—especially sight, sound, feeling, and imagination.

Caution: His posts are habit-forming because the minute you click to open the post, the sound and motion begin. Boom. This is your journey, and Wout treats you as a peer, allowing you to form your own perspective, genuine desire, and personal growth.

In the email to all subscribers today is the cross-post for Dancing on the Edge of Creation, The magic of potential — the untamed beauty of lingering in the infinite possibilities before creation takes form.

Are you thinking more about who you are or what you are making?

In the end, creativity isn't just about what we make; it's about how we allow ourselves to dream. It's about dancing on the edge of expression, savoring the magic of possibility, and remembering that the most profound art lies not in the making but in the being. - Wout Van Helvoirt
