<p><strong> No One Ever Dies of Cancer&#8230;<br />
</strong><strong> Here&#8217;s The Shocking Truth</strong></p>
<p>By Madison Cavanaugh</p>
<p>Cancer is one of the most dreaded diseases of our time. It strikes anyone of any age, whether you lead a healthy or unhealthy lifestyle; whether you exercise regularly or are a couch potato.</p>
<p>But here’s the shocking truth that most people don’t know: No one actually dies of cancer.</p>
<p>Some people die from complications caused by conventional cancer therapies … but it’s NEVER cancer that kills them.</p>
<p>So what really happens when someone “dies of cancer?” It means their immune system stopped working. It’s rarely the presence of cancer cells or tumors that kill anyone. Cancer cells come and go. We all have cancer cells existing in our body, but those cells usually don’t multiply into the full-blown disease … unless our immune system is compromised.</p>
<p>Chemotherapy, radiation and surgery are NOT the answer. Oncologist Dr. Tullio Simoncini states that according to his polls and questionnaires, “75 percent of doctors say they’d refuse chemotherapy if they had cancer &#8230; because it is NOT a cure, is ineffective and has devastating side effects.”</p>
<p>One medical journal, Clinical Oncology, published the results of a December 2004 study showing that chemotherapy is not a cure, and has a success rate of just over 2 percent for all cancers! That&#8217;s a FAILURE rate of 98%!</p>
<p><strong>Can Cancer Just &#8220;Go Away?&#8221;<br />
</strong>In November 24, 2008, the New York Times reported that cancer researchers have known for years that it’s possible for some cancers to be cured on their own. There were cses of melanomas and kidney cancers just vanishing spontaneously. Neuroblastoma, a rare childhood tumor, has also been shown to sometimes go away without treatment.</p>
<p><strong>Food for Thought</strong><br />
Metaphysical scientists believe that whatever one focuses on grows. Therefore, when cancer is diagnosed and treated, intense mental focus is centered on the disease, and the cancerous condition may well become exacerbated rather than healed.</p>
<p>New York Times best selling author Gregg Braden, a pioneer in bridging science and spirituality, states: “Everywhere we look, consciousness will put something there for us to see. If you are awake and conscious, you are creating. So, what does it mean when you are trained to look for something you don’t want? What does it mean to keep looking for a lump in a breast?”</p>
<p><strong>A Natural Answer?</strong><br />
The fact remains that the human body is designed to heal itself. BUT the body heals itself automatically ONLY when it’s supplied with everything it needs to do its job.</p>
<p>The most essential element your body needs in order to cure any disease is oxygen. Sadly, most people living in modern societies are deficient of oxygen. And a second factor is stress &#8212; which can keep your body from functioning properly.</p>
<p>More than 15,000 European doctors have healed millions of patients using a simple inexpensive cure, and over 6,100 articles have been published in European scientific literature hailing the success of this simple, inexpensive therapy.</p>
<p>Yet this information has been aggressively suppressed in the United States &#8212; and American doctors who have dared to use it to cure a wide variety of &#8220;incurable&#8221; and life-threatening diseases have come under heavy attack.</p>
<p><strong>The Key to Spontaneous Remission</strong><br />
It stands to reason that when you (1) keep your body oxygenated, and (2) minimize stress, that could possibly be the recipe for spontaneous remission of almost any disease.</p>
<p>Many natural health practitioners believe that cancer treatments offered by orthodox medicine are extremely damaging to the body — especially the immune system, which is the only system in the body that can restore the body to health and optimum functioning.</p>
<p>In short: People don’t actually “die of cancer.” They die because of immune system failure. Oftentimes, their immune system is suppressed and severely compromised because of unhealthy lifestyles or treatments — and this prevents their body from healing itself the way it was designed to do.</p>
<p>BUT if your immune system is strengthened through oxygenation and stress minimization, there’s almost no disease that your body cannot heal. You must read this=&gt; <a href="http://57487a30o74u4y5b1eo2y6b1fo.hop.clickbank.net/" target="_self">Click Here to Learn More!</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.quantum-self.com/wp-content/uploads/large-gold-star.gif"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1939" title="large gold star" src="http://www.quantum-self.com/wp-content/uploads/large-gold-star.gif" alt="" width="68" height="75" /></a>There are<strong> 8 proven strategies</strong> that highly successful people have always used to overcome obstacles to their goals. Properly applied, these same principles can also serve as a catalyst for YOUR success. </p>
<p><strong>1. Get Aligned <br />
</strong>It’s important to first clearly define exactly what you are truly passionate about &#8212; then find a way to become successful at that passion. Only passion stirs up the kind of energy you’ll need when you hit those inevitable bumps in the road. An important proven effective success strategy is to set <span style="text-decoration: underline;">passionate</span> goals! </p>
<p><strong>2. Focus on Your Priorities</strong> <br />
Many folks try to fit their dreams into their life &#8212; complaining there are not enough hours in the day to make it happen. If you want your dream to become a reality, make it a priority. Otherwise it will never be more than a pipe dream, and you’re just setting yourself up for disappointment. </p>
<p>Making something important happen in your life requires more than just a goal &#8212; it requires a REAL plan of action to get you on target! Create a realistic goal plan that fits the reality of your life. </p>
<p><strong>3. Don’t Force It</strong> <br />
Don’t try to force something that isn’t happening. Go for the type of inspired, joyful action that comes along with pursuing a goal in true alignment with your dreams. This causes things to flow along easily and without energy-consuming &#8220;efforting.&#8221; </p>
<p>Contrast this to forcing yourself to take an action you really don’t want to take. Most likely this will take you twice as long, and you’ll bump up against obstacles. </p>
<p>Whenever possible swim with the current … not against it. And stick to your goal plan. </p>
<p><strong>4. Manage your Stress</strong> <br />
Stress throws us off balance and into an older, less productive portion of our brain. It prepares you to fight or run. But it does not prepare you to successfully achieve a goal (unless that goal is to escape a tiger.) </p>
<p><strong>5. Build your Strengths</strong> <br />
Success comes easier and more quickly when you focus on your strengths, and delegate in those areas where you are less capable. Your natural talents are those things you do so easily and naturally. They contain the seeds of your greatest potential accomplishments. </p>
<p>It’s very important to identify and work on your natural talents and abilities. This is where self knowledge pays off in big dollars and accomplishments. And don’t forget to also your build your mind power! </p>
<p><strong>6. Disarm Your Inner Saboteur <br />
</strong>Fear of failure is the biggest internal fear most people will ever have to face. It is why so many ideas never get beyond the idea stage &#8212; and why most new projects are started, but never finished.</p>
<p>It’s okay to have these feelings, but it is important to identify them for what they are. </p>
<p>Most fears of failure go all the way back to childhood, and are not even accurate for who you are today. Drag them up into the daylight, and take serious action to face them head on. </p>
<p><strong>7. Develop Resilience</strong> <br />
The truth is, you will have setbacks along the way. This is inevitable. The sooner you accept that, the better. Often if you look closely, you will find these setbacks are directly related to your innermost thoughts, fears and beliefs. This is because we create what we focus on, including those things we don&#8217;t want.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t get stopped by these bumps in the road. Learn from them. As you work through them you will become the person you need to be to create your dreams. And along the way, be sure to refine your stress management skills. This is an essential key to resilience! </p>
<p><strong>8. Use the Power of Visualization</strong><br />
The muscles we use to physically take action in our lives begins in the mind. That is why all great golfers, tennis players, basketball players, dancers, etc. visualize themselves performing successfully. </p>
<p>An experiment conducted by Aussie psychologist Alan Richardson reported a 23% performance improvement among people who visualized every day for 20 days. Richardson found that the most effective visualization occurs when you <em>feel </em>and <em>see</em> what you are doing. </p>
<p>Use visualization to power-up your success.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.quantum-self.com/wp-content/uploads/k1089753.jpg"></a><a href="http://www.quantum-self.com/wp-content/uploads/touch.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1927" title="touch" src="http://www.quantum-self.com/wp-content/uploads/touch.jpg" alt="" width="118" height="78" /></a>The heroes of mythology are called archetypes &#8212; perennial personality themes stored in the collective, universal mind.</p>
<p>These themes are representations of our collective yearnings, imagination, and deepest desires. These themes have existed forever. We see them in the writings of ancient cultures, and in literature throughout the ages. Their shapes shift depending on where we are in history, but their core remains the same.</p>
<p>These archetypes appear in our modern-day movies, television soap operas, and tabloid newspapers. Anytime a person or character seems “bigger than life,” we are seeing the enactment of an archetype. These characters are usually presented as uncomplicated and with purity of intent, regardless of what that intent may be.</p>
<p>Divine or diabolical, sacred or profane, sinner or saint, adventurer, sage, seeker, rescuer, redeemer – all are exaggerated expressions of the conscious energy of the collective mind.</p>
<p>Archetypes are born of the collective mind, but they are enacted by individuals. Their mythical dramas play out daily in our physical world. Every human being is attuned to some archetype, or even two or three archetypes. Every one of us is hardwired at the level of the soul to enact or model archetypal characteristics. They are seeds sown within us &#8212; our personality theme.</p>
<p>The activation of an archetype releases its patterning forces that allow us to become more of what we are destined to become. And our individual archetypes are reflected in our desires or intentions. They become our personality theme.</p>
<p><strong>So&#8230; really who are you? What do you want? What is the purpose of your existence? Do YOU want to discover your most powerful personality theme, or archetype, and claim it on a deep cellular level?</strong> <a title="Discover and develop your true self" href="http://www.zaprealitychallenge.com" target="_self"><em><strong>Start Today!</strong></em></a></p>
<p>Adapted from &#8220;The Spontaneous Fulfillment of Desire&#8221;<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.quantum-self.com/wp-content/uploads/resilience.png"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1139" title="resilience" src="http://www.quantum-self.com/wp-content/uploads/resilience.png" alt="" width="109" height="130" /></a>Ever wonder why you feel pain in your chest when  your feelings have been hurt? Terms like “heartache” and “gut wrenching” are not just metaphors &#8212; they describe both physical and emotional pain.</p>
<p>If you feel heartache, for example, what you are experiencing is emotional stress and the resulting stress-induced sensations in your chest — muscle tightness, an increased heart rate, uncomfortable stomach activity, and shortness of breath.</p>
<p>Physical and emotional pain are intimately connected, You may be a bit surprised to learn that emotional pain triggers the exact brain regions that physical pain lights up.</p>
<p>How do emotions trigger physical sensations? A 2009 study conducted at the University of Arizona and the University of Maryland found that activity in a brain region that regulates emotional reactions (the anterior cingulate cortex) helps explain how an emotional insult can trigger a biological cascade.</p>
<p>During a stressful experience your brain&#8217;s anterior cingulate cortex increases the activity of your Vagus nerve. This huge nerve is the pathway connecting your brain stem to your neck, chest and abdomen.</p>
<p>When this nerve is over stimulated, it can cause pain, abdominal “butterflies,” and even nausea.</p>
<p>But heartache is not the only way emotional and physical pain intersect in our brain. Other studies show that even feeling emotional pain on behalf of another person &#8212; that is, having empathy for that person &#8212; can also influence your pain perception. And this effect is NOT limited to humans. A recent paper published in Science Magazine revealed that when a mouse sees its cage mate in agony, that mouse&#8217;s sensitivity to physical pain increases. But when it comes into close contact with a friendly, unharmed mouse, its sensitivity to pain is reduced. </p>
<p>A recent brain scan study of humans supported the finding in mice &#8212; showing that simple acts of social kindness, such as holding hands, can blunt the brain’s response to threats of physical pain, and thus actually lessen the pain.</p>
<p>The author of this post, Dr. Jill Ammon-Wexler, has developed a remarkable downloadable program that reaches right to the core to eliminates emotional pain=&gt; <a href="http://www.quantum-self.com/smash_your_limits.htm">You CAN overcome emotional pain!</a></p>

<p><strong>Literally, every thought you think defines your personal reality!</strong></p>
<p>EVERY single thought you think has actual and very powerful creative power. This is the power behind the saying  that “we are the source of all that is present in our life.”</p>
<p>Why is this so? Because the subconscious mind, by its very nature, accepts whatever we imagine to be REAL, then uses it to create our ACTUAL outer reality.</p>
<p>This includes the thoughts you think about what you want, or whom you wish to become. Likewise the thoughts you think about what you do NOT want will create, and cause the fulfillment of, exactly what you do NOT want. This is why I say that worry is powerful negative goal setting!</p>
<p>Creative visualization is the technique of using your imagination to create what you WANT in your life. There is nothing at all new, strange or unusual about this success tool. You are already using it every minute of every day.</p>
<p>YOU have designed your life and personal reality yourself. Imagining what you want is like simply building a model before you build the real thing. These images actually direct the energy in your mind and body. Each of your thoughts radiates the essence of yourself out into the environment… and from there out into the universe.</p>
<p>And because of the power of visualization, it’s very important to develop your self-awareness of what you are thinking &#8212; so that nothing will come about in your life unless you consciously choose it!</p>
<p>You are the virtual creator of your life. Everything you perceive &#8220;out there&#8221; is a materialization of your thoughts, formed by YOUR energy into symbols of the inner you &#8212; your essence. Nothing happens that you have not called to you.</p>
<p><strong>It is through this process that </strong><a title="Trnsform your life in 8 weeks - a remarkable!experience!!" href="http://www.zaprealitychallenge.com" target="_self"><strong>personal transformation</strong></a><strong> and empowerment occur.</strong></p>

<p>Here is what happens when you are facing a challenge creating more prosperiity in your life:</p>
<p>(1) You can REACT by getting anxious, sinking into depression, and just giving up. This response would obviously create a negative reality in your life.</p>
<p>(2) You can REACT by getting really angry, and venting your anger at everyone around you.</p>
<p>(3) You can instead RESPOND and use your focus and energy taking action to create a positive answer to creating more prosperity.</p>
<p><strong>Reacting vs Responding</strong><br />
There&#8217;s a huge difference between reacting and responding.</p>
<p>Reacting is a knee jerk reaction controlled by the oldest, non-logical portion of our brain (the brain stem) &#8212; which is then further fed by the emotion you stir up with your knee-jerk reaction.</p>
<p>Responding, on the other hand, is focused in the higher thinking centers of your brain, which then sends signals down to the emotional centers to take control of any stress or fear.</p>
<p>Life does not just happen to us. It is our REACTION OR RESPONSE to what occurs that creates our personal reality. Think about this for a moment. You really ARE in charge of creating your own life by choosing whether you react, or respond, to your challenges.</p>
<p><strong>Why Choose to Respond</strong><br />
For the most part we eat, sleep, work, play, laugh, worry, hope, plan, love, hate, cook, drive, work out &#8212; all with little consideration of what we are thinking &#8212; or whether we are reacting or responding.</p>
<p>This is not necessarily a bad thing. If we gave conscious attention to every single thought or action, we would overload our brain with unimportant decisions.</p>
<p>STILL, your thoughts, reactions and responses got you where you are today.  And they will continue to create all of your tomorrows&#8230;and your level of prosperity.</p>
<p><strong>Get Prosperous</strong><br />
Your life is a mirror reflection of exactly how you think. And financial security and prosperity do NOT just happen. You create it by responding, OR you just continue to accept the crumbs that life happens to throw your way.</p>
<p>If you want to get prosperous, the place to start is by building a solid prosperity focused RESPONSE to your current life situation.</p>
<p>Start with a review of your current thoughts. If you want prosperity, but constantly think about your lack of money, you are focused on the wrong end of the prosperity stick.</p>
<p>Failure to pay attention will just leave your lower brain in control and encourage fear- and anxiety-based negative knee-jerk reactions.</p>
<p>To get prosperous, begin TODAY to RESPOND positively to your situation &#8212; and TAKE ACTION to create a positive answer to your challenges.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.quantum-self.com/wp-content/uploads/552.gif"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1797" title="55" src="http://www.quantum-self.com/wp-content/uploads/552.gif" alt="" width="70" height="70" /></a>What is a &#8220;mental outlook?&#8221; It&#8217;s the mental window you look out through to view what&#8217;s happening in your life.</p>
<p>I think I will always clearly remember the image I saw on CNN of a large group of Haitians singing and dancing in the street amidst the rubble of buildings crumbled by one earthquake after another.</p>
<p>In that moment I had total faith these people WILL both survive and rebuild. Easy? Not by a long shot! But their collective mental outlook will carry them forward, and made me want to donate even more to the rebuilding efforts.</p>
<p><strong>Our Colored Glasses<br />
</strong>As individuals we each tend to view life through our own characteristic way. If you wear mental &#8220;rose colored glasses,&#8221; your mental outlook will tend to be more rosy, or positive. While if you wear blue tinted glasses, the world (and your outlook) will probably tend to be &#8220;blue.&#8221;</p>
<p>The outward reality is the same in both cases &#8212; but its colored by each person&#8217;s outlook &#8212; their customary mood and expectations.</p>
<p>The problem with a &#8220;blue,&#8221; or less optimistic, outlook is that it tends to be disempowering. It leads to depression. And what goes hand-in-hand with depression is an inability to take action to improve one&#8217;s situation.</p>
<p>A &#8220;blue&#8221; person may sneer at the optimist wearing rose-colored glasses &#8212; but they cannot deny the fact that they are more likely to take a chance and ACT. And action is life embracing!</p>
<p>It&#8217;s like that Haitian woman who found a broom and began to sweep the debris laden street in front of what was once her house. Will her sweeping make a difference? It did in her life!</p>
<p><strong>Dealing With Challenges</strong><br />
Most of us are facing one challenge or another today. These are NOT easy times. And the stress of hard times can have a powerful effect on our mental outlook: If you feel worried about something, your brain is then wired to give any related event a worried evaluation. </p>
<p>And although our feelings are fleeting, our moods are not. Moods are based on a brain-level accumulation of feelings that have been stored on actual physical neural networks.</p>
<p>So if you are in a worried mood, you tend to have anxious feelings. Anxious feelings, in turn, color your evaluations of your options. This is actually brain-based and&#8230; And a negative evaluation of a new event will just further strengthen the anxious feeling. This new negative feeling, in turn, helps maintain your worried mood.</p>
<p>This creates a non-productive vicious cycle that will build strength unless broken. Generally such cycles are best broken by changing your feelings, which will in turn change your mood.</p>
<p><strong>Changing a Non-Productive Mood</strong><br />
How to break up such a cycle? One good way to start is to really FOCUS on finding a solution to just ONE of the problems you face. Do not even try to tackle all of it at once &#8212; this can just lead to overwhelm, and even more anxiety.</p>
<p>Once you identify one problem you want to solve, allow yourself to sort through your options and actually PICK ONE.</p>
<p>Avoid fence sitting. If you feel a afraid of making a mistake, look at it this way: The sooner you focus and take action, the sooner you will learn from any mistake, and can then take a new corrective action.</p>
<p>Set your sights on a better mental outlook. Life has its challenges &#8212; that IS a given. But obviously you have already survived some challenges to get where you are today &#8212; and can likewise rise above your current challenges. </p>
<p>The truth is this: You have the ability to re-create any thought patterns that might be holding you back. Seize the moment, focus, and just go for it.</p>
<p><strong>The author&#8217;s popular SUCCESS COURSE is an experience unlike any other.</strong> Over an 8-week period you will receive daily guidance and lessons that will truly unleash your personal power and ability to steer your life (or business) in any desired direction.This training is for you if you seriously want to get yourself together, focused, and in action &#8212; NOW! <a title="The ultimate personal power experience" href="http://www.zaprealitychallenge.com" target="_self"><strong><em>Show Me!</em></strong></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.quantum-self.com/wp-content/uploads/deepak.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1464" title="deepak" src="http://www.quantum-self.com/wp-content/uploads/deepak.jpg" alt="" width="91" height="90" /></a>Deepak Chopra tells us that making any idea come to life always involves manifesting an intention. Even if you have a flash of genius, that flash simply remains inside your head until it materializes because of an intention.</p>
<p>So the important issue is how it gets materialized. There are efficient ways and inefficient ways. The most efficient way is shown to us by the mind itself, says Chopra.</p>
<p>Now consider a large intention, such as the intention to go to medical school. Between having this idea in your mind initially and fulfilling it are many steps, and these are not all internal at all: raising tuition money, passing exams, gaining admission, etc.</p>
<p>Yet each of these steps depends upon brain/mind operations being invisibly coordinated. You think, move and act using intention. All events take place in the mind field first and then exhibit their outward manifestation.</p>
<p>You can be detached from how things are going to work out because you have left it to the cosmos. Past success and failure don’t matter since each intention is computed afresh, without regard for old conditioning. You are able to be patient about each step, given that timing is worked out perfectly on another level.</p>
<p>Over the months and years of getting to be a doctor, you remain a silent witness as pieces of the process fall into place. Even as you go through the action, the “doing” of it remains impersonal.</p>
<p>On the ego level you may feel disappointment that event A occurred instead of event B, which you expected, but a deeper level you know that B happened for a better reason.</p>
<p>Your chief responsibility was to have the intention in the first place, to remain as sensitive and alert as possible.</p>
<p>The turning points in life arrive as small signals at first&#8230; and only amplify when you choose to follow them. So being vigilant about tiny clues is a major part of <strong>your </strong><a title="Making the most of a turning point" href="http://www.zaprealitychallenge.com" target="_self"><strong>individual evolution</strong></a><strong>.</strong></p>
<p>.Adapted from <em>How To Know God</em>, by <a title="Official website of Deepak Chopra" href="http://deepakchopra.com/">Deepak Chopra</a> (Harmony Books, 2000), available at book stores and online from Amazon.com.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><a href="http://www.quantum-self.com/wp-content/uploads/litebulb.gif"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1784" title="super mind power" src="http://www.quantum-self.com/wp-content/uploads/litebulb.gif" alt="" width="100" height="100" /></a>There is strong evidence that certain strategies definitely increase creative output. These strategies include&#8230;</strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">Strategy 1. Embrace Your Problems</span></strong><br />
One of the most fundamental skills of creativity is the ability to recognize an opportunity and seize it. You have countless opportunities to expand your creative thinking skills. Such opportunities present themselves daily at home, while driving to work, during meetings or lunch &#8211; or while just hanging out with friends. There&#8217;s really no shortage of opportunities to refine and develop your creativity. The most basic approach is to recognize that a problem Â may actually be a golden opportunity for a creative explosion &#8211; and seize the moment.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">Strategy 2. Challenge Your Assumptions</span></strong><br />
It&#8217;s natural and necessary to make assumptions about the reality of our everyday world. We would otherwise spend all of our waking hours performing unnecessary mental analyzes of ordinary things. As a result, many times we see only what we expect to see. Our analysis of a situation or a problem is based entirely on assumptions based on our past experience or accepted knowledge. Plus assumptions can become so entrenched it doesn&#8217;t cross our mind to challenge them.</p>
<p>A problem may arise simply because we perceive a situation or condition through a set of false assumptions preventing clear thinking. Challenging your assumptions is an important component of creativity. This allows you to look beyond what is obvious or already accepted. And it leads straight to the creative breakthroughs you&#8217;re looking for.</p>
<p>Truly creative people in all fields of interest tend to automatically challenge both their own assumptions, and the commonly accepted knowledge about a problem. This mental attitude is the true source of all of the world&#8217;s great inventions and businesses. The moment you choose to challenge one of your assumptions as possibly untrue or incomplete,&#8221; you are on the way to discovering something new and different.</p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>Strategy 3. Take Some Risks</strong><br />
</span>A willingness to take risks is at the very heart of creativity. No creative person succeeds without first failing &#8211; as failures are part of the process of testing one&#8217;s assumptions. There is simply no creativity without failure.</p>
<p>To experience major creative breakthroughs, it&#8217;s important to become comfortable taking risks. Each failure you encounter will actually supercharge your creativity by generating new information. If you&#8217;re unwilling to take risks and deal with what ordinary people call failure, then you cannot expect to become a great creative thinker.</p>
<p>Modern neuroscience has shown that our brains are literally rewired each time we learn something new by making a mistake. The brain is designed to learn through the trial and error process. </p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">Strategy 4. Use Alternative Thinking<br />
</span></strong>To come up with a creative idea, you will often need a new vantage point. Creating a new solution to an existing problem, for example, may require looking at the problem from a fresh perspective.</p>
<p>There are many tools used by creative thinkers to create such a fresh perspective, including: Brainstorming, MESV creative visualization, and various other means of considering the problem from a fresh vantage point.</p>
<p>Additionally, a great way to kick start your creativity is to look at your problem from the vantage point of another profession. If you are a mechanical engineer, for example, how would an architect view your problem? Or if you are a product designer, how would an interior decorator approach your problem? This approach can lead to some remarkable creative breakthroughs.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">Strategy 5. Accept Ambiguity</span><br />
</strong>Many people prefer that everything be clear and unambiguous. They are uncomfortable with anything that seems vague, or could have more than one meaning or application. As a result they tend to be rigid, highly predictable thinkers.</p>
<p>A touch of ambiguous thinking during the idea generation stage of the creative process has the power to bring out genius-level ideas. People who can think ambiguously are fluid and flexible thinkers. The ability to think ambiguously can yield amazing creative insights. This is ability is experienced (and built) when you indulge in wordplay or humour.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">Strategy 6. Expand Your Vision<br />
</span></strong>An excellent way to build your creative muscles is to read and explore outside your normal area of interest. This can be especially useful when you are struggling to solve a creative problem. </p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">Strategy 7. Massage your brainwaves</span><br />
</strong>Creative thinking best occurs when your brain is in certain states called alpha and theta. You are in an alpha/theta state when your brain is producing a predominance of slower brain-waves, as opposed to the faster beta brain-waves associated with normal waking consciousness.</p>
<p>Alpha /theta brain-waves are the reason many people have creative ah-ha experiences during a nap, a stroll, or some other mentally-relaxing activity. But consciously entering into an alpha/theta state can be a challenge. Meditators spend years learning to initiate this state on will, but modern technology has introduced a much faster method of building alpha/theta expertise &#8211; <a title="Brainwaves training" href="http://www.quantumbraingym.com/" target="_blank">brainwave training.</a> Be sure to check it out &#8211; your creativity will never be the same. Incidentally, a great side benefit of entering into the alpha/theta brain-wave state is virtually instant stress reduction.</p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>Supercharge Your Brain </strong><br />
</span>The one thing that robs you of creative energy more than anything else is stress. Bust your stress and you will raise your IQ, develop clear mental focus, study and learn better, and increase your creatuve output.  <a title="Energize from the inside out" href="http://www.quantumbraingym.com/" target="_blank"><strong><em>Click here.</em></strong></a></p>
