Two Letters, Lots of Power

One of the most important traits someone looking to start a one-person business can continually strengthen is creative curiosity.

Creativity doesn't just apply to painters, sculptors, actors, or any other professionals we often think of as requiring creative thought to do their work. It is an approach to life and, as a significant part of life, an approach to business.

Creative curiosity happens in simple moments when we say to ourselves, "What would happen if..." or "If I changed this one thing, I wonder..." Notice the tiny little word that anchors both examples - IF.

Creative curiosity flourishes when we stay in a perpetual state of "What if?"

Be curious.

Keep your mind trained on if.

Pull on that thread of a quirky thought. See where it takes you. It may just be the idea that launches the next phase of your career or inspire your own one-person business.
