Creative Status: Episode 11: Bob Burg: Creativity & Go-Giving

by Oli Anderson, Transformational Coach for Realness

Creative Status is a podcast about using your creativity to increase your status and improve your health, wealth, and relationships.

To be real, learn to GIVE 👇

The REAL version of you is unshackled and unbound and so is able to flow with life instead of being held back from it.

The CREATIVE PROCESS is what allows us all to make the unconscious conscious so that we can deal with our emotional ‘stuff’ and see the futility of the beliefs and desires we’ve created for ourselves because of EGO instead of our REALNESSS.

When we’re caught up in ego ‘stuff’ then we see ourselves as being FRAGMENTED and disconnected from the rest of life.

When we’re being REAL, we experience ourselves and being WHOLE and in a state of interdependence with the rest of life.

In the fragmented state, we have a scarcity mindset and believe in limitation more than freedom. This causes us to focus only on what we can TAKE.

In the whole state, we have an abundance mindset and realise that freedom is more true than limitation. This causes to focus on what we can GIVE and RECEIVE.

Bob Burg is the co-author of the Go-Giver, a powerful little book about how we can improve our lives by giving more to the world.

It looks at five ‘laws’ that we can use in order to align ourselves more closely with human nature and to get better results in life and business.

The five laws are:

The Law of Value

Your real worth is defined by how much more value you give than how much you get paid.

The Law of Compensation

Your income is decided by the number of people you serve and how well you serve them.

The Law of Influence

Your influence is defined by how often and how much you focus on others’ interests first.

The Law of Authenticity

The biggest and most valuable gift you can offer is yourself.

The Law of Receptivity

To give effectively, you must be open to receive.

In this episode of Creative Status, we look at how these laws can be applied to creative life and business so that we can get better results and experience more with our lives.

This is a short interview jam-packed with insights and information that will hopefully help you open up to your real self and find more to give than you may currently think.

The book explores how we can better manage our relationships with shame, guilt, and trauma in order to remove the Mask that the world has asked us to wear (and that we forgot we were wearing) so we can live an authentic life with less drama, chaos, or BS whilst we’re still around.
