Every Step

“Creativity in your work comes from your mind. The idea of work being creative is that the mind can connect with the sharpness or the inspiration within any situation. There is always something acute and precise happening in a situation, which can lead you to other possibilities. That quality of mind connecting with the potential could be called imagination, I suppose, but it’s not dreamy imagination; it’s practical imagination. It is seeing that every step contains possibilities of furthering whatever your process is. That includes your contribution and the whole environment around that particular job. There is room to learn, room to develop.”
~ Chogyam Trungpa, Work Sex Money: Real Life on the Path of Mindfulness
