Finding my muse on the run

December 12, 2013

Starting the day cruising along Sydney harbour is the perfect way to get to work in the city. One of my go-to books for the commute is Danielle LaPorte’s The Fire Starter Sessions and from time to time I will get stuck into a chapter or two for inspiration. On a recent work day morning, I dived into a section on creativity, art and musing. I was really captivated by her thoughts on how to tune in to your muse and soon discovered that with a little practice, it could become one of your most powerful assets.

Until now, I associated the word muse with Greek mythology or more ironically Karl Largerfeld and his string of Hollywood sirens. But through Danielle LaPorte’s writing, it was clear that everyone has a muse whether they know it or not. The tricky part is working out the best way to tap into its power.
