How To Connect to Our Creativity with Tye Glover, an excerpt from The Perception Podcast

Tye Glover is an Ideation Coach, and Founder and President of Think Different Nation.

This is an excerpt from his conversation with Caroline Partridge for her Perception Podcast.

He comments: "We can't really recognize what else someone else is not seeing or seeing...I started recognizing that I have a particular way in which I'm experiencing that I'm looking at things, that I'm taking note of particular operations of forms and functions.

"And I started to recognize how these things are becoming the key pieces of information or what Steve Jobs would refer to as dots - he used to use the expression ‘You can't connect the dots by looking forward, you've got to look backwards.’"

The description for the full Perception Podcast episode includes:

"After being labelled as learning disabled and consigned to a future of manual work Tye describes how the spectre of imposer syndrome haunted him for years, until he finally found the belief to create his own business teaching people how to connect to their ideas and creativity.

Tye also explains the theory behind NCP or Neuro Creative Programming and how Star Trek really does influence science.

Key Takeaways

Imposter syndrome labels us "less intelligent" but we have hidden strengths and perceptive abilities valuable elsewhere, so embrace your distinct way of thinking and operating.

Noticing life's anomalies then drilling down for deeper understanding builds a library of novel inputs to spark new ideas and connections á la Steve Jobs' "connecting the dots."

Science and imagination are intertwined - science fiction writers imagine what scientists verify, like Star Trek influencing NASA, so perceive creativity as foundational to science.

We're distinct individuals experiencing emotion at different polarities and paces, so make space for your own nonlinear neurological and emotional processing free of judgment.

The mind directs energy so carefully choose where to place your mental focus, limiting attention on unchangeable, distracting, lower vibrational drama unrelated to progress.

"To thine own self be true" - create by knowing your native talents and processes then expand by applying them more widely, living and working aligned with your authentic strengths."
