The Essence Of Expression

[Guest guest]

The Essence of ExpressionThe Essence of Expressionby Gadbois, Ph.D. @ creativetransfo....rmations.com..Expression,like

various forms of creativity can be used positively- to uplift,instruct,

inspire, bring beauty into the world- or negatively - tobelittle,

demoralize, tear down and even destroy. Expression takes manyforms

whether it's the spoken language, body language, a sermon, actingout in

a state of emotional drama, any time an individual is active, ordoing

something, they are "expressing" themselves.Humansexpress

themselves every moment, through every feeling, thought, word,or the

attitude they walk through life with . . . with the metaphorsthey use,

what they reference as examples, the story they tell aboutthings, about

themselves . . every form of "action" is creative.Bringing an internal

state into an external reality of some sort. Allwe are capable of doing

is projecting our "self" onto our enironment.Every thought, meaning,

and perception is experience "through us" asus. Our models serve as

filters used to perceive the world as somethingunique and special.This

day and age, the "age of communication"we have lost the art of

"performing ideas" - transmitting informationby developing skill at

expressing it. Yet, it is the emotional qualityof the information that

provokes action, that motivates us to dosomething, to act based on the

"feeling quality" of the information wehave been given. This is the

true art of "inspiring" people. To inspireis to take a standard goal or

desired outcome, and perform it in a waythat engages people emotionally

in personally identifying with the goalin a way that compels them

towards it, creating a desire in them to"do" something to make it come

true.To act in a fashion thatsupports and creates a physical

reality motivated by the "feelingquality" of the idea as it was

communicated. We all seek to be apart ofsomething that is greater than

ourselves. The greater the emotionalquality of the expression, the more

clearly we relate to being apart ofwhat's being expressed. If, by

relating to it, I feel . . ."courageous, powerful, able to serve,

compassionate, caring, sexy,valuable" etc. - whatever the feeling, if

it feels good, it willattract people who have that "desire" inside of

them that is beingprovoked into reality by the emotional quality of my

communication-which creates a path for expression. All great artist,

communicatorsand leaders understand this.To be a great artist,

a greatleader, you must stir people's desire, touch them inside with

emotionsthat compel them into action. Not because they should or it's

the rightthing to do . . . but because they must! Creating and

transferringemotion, creates a powerful desire to do something as a

result of yourperformance. By activating the right "state of mind" you

can not onlyinfluence people towards a common goal, but bring out

peoplesmagnificence in the process. When people feel moved by

something,usually the best part of them, the part that is passionate

comes forthand becomes more apparent.This passionate "presence"

is whatperforms the action. When people act out of passion, they own

andharness their personal power to self actualize. When you have

theability to trigger this response in people intentionally you

literallybring out the genius in common people, at will. What you see

in them,they see in themselves. What we reflect we are projecting. When

webecome invested in the fun of exercising our power to bring out

thebest in other people, we simultaneously experience the best

inourselves. To empower others, is to experience yourself as powerful.

Inorder to express it, you have to have it.To bring beauty

intothe world by expressing it, is to become a conduit for attracting

it, achannel through which beauty can flow. Focusing your mind on

drawingbeauty to you, filling yourself up with it to the point of

explodinginto existence - you become the living, breathing expression

of beauty.Your cup runneth over. It becomes your experience, your

common everyday reality! You are, by virtue of your nature . . .
