The Groove 168 - The Stories You Loved The Most in 2023
THE STORIES YOU LOVED THE MOST IN 2023
This has been a very challenging year for many of you. I want to say that I see you, I hear you, and I empathize with you.
I also want to thank you so much for being a subscriber to The Groove, for having supported my book, for enrolling in my course, and for simply being open to receive this information every week.
Whether you are an artist or an entrepreneur, creative thinking is the lifeblood of any business or career. It's the catalyst that sparks innovation, propels problem-solving, and drives progress. In a constantly evolving landscape, the ability to think creatively isn't just an advantage —it's a necessity.
Creativity that is nurtured both in the mind and heart breathes fresh perspectives into mundane tasks, fostering unique approaches that set individuals and organizations apart.
Embracing creative thinking allows artists and businesspeople, teachers and writers, companies and nonprofits, to stand out by offering new insights, original ideas, and imaginative approaches to both common and complex issues. It cultivates a mindset that isn't constrained by existing norms but instead thrives on pushing boundaries and exploring uncharted territories.
Without further ado, here are the stories that you loved the most this year. They are timely and timeless.
If you’ve already read them, dive into them again - you will find new details to think through! If you haven’t read some or all, now is a good time. None will take you more than 5 minutes to do so:
3. How to Live with Uncertainty and Still Succeed
4. How to Be a Cross-Pollinator
5. Why All Your Feelings Are Crucial to Reaching Your Goals
7. How to Thrive in the Age of AI
8. Why Victimhood Quashes Creativity
9. Why You Don’t Have To Follow Trends to be Disruptive
I wish you greatness, wisdom, health of body and mind, prosperity, and love for the year to come.
Thanks again,
Maria
