What If You Just Went for It?

That nudge you keep ignoring. It's not going away.

Something strange is happening to me.

I’m less interested in scrolling social media. And MUCH less captivated by what any influencers are saying.

I’m even spending less time with AI — which is odd, because you know how much I love AI.

Instead, my heart keeps pulling me toward something else entirely: waking up in the early morning hours just to write.

Not because I have something groundbreaking to say. Not because there’s a deadline looming.

Simply because something inside me won’t rest until the words make it onto the page.

At first, it felt like torture. I’d spend the first fifteen minutes wrestling internally. One part of me was desperate to fall back asleep. Another part was clawing toward my laptop, anxious to release whatever was stirring inside.

Sacred Writing Time

The struggle has been real.

While now I call this “sacred writing time,” it was anything but that when I was first started waking up at 3:33 AM. (Sometimes it’s 4:00 AM if I’m lucky.)

And yet somehow — by some miracle I still don’t fully understand — it’s evolved into the most creative part of my day.

What caused the shift?

I finally realized what was actually happening. The part of me that yearns to write? That’s the divine in me. The part that was made to create.

You’re Innately a Creator

We are all creator beings. Our capacity to create is limitless.

This is because we are intimately connected to a creator God (Source Energy/ Universal Life Force), which means we carry something of that creative essence within us.

The only obstacle? Our stubborn minds, which dwell in worry, anxiety, or stories of lack and limitation. Our minds whisper: Who are you to create something? Who would even care?

But what if there were no limits? What if you could create whatever you wanted?

What I’ve learned About Answering the Creative Call:

The longing doesn’t go away just because you ignore it.

I’ve struggled with my own creativity — felt blocked, unsure, scattered. Ideas have come and gone, usually lost before they ever took shape. At first, this was easy to ignore in the busyness of everyday life.

Until it wasn’t.

Until the longing from within could no longer be silenced, and I simply had to crack the laptop open at 3 AM. It stopped feeling like a choice and became an inevitability.

What’s Next?

I don’t know exactly where this journey of early morning musings will take me. I just know it’s unavoidable. And I’ve stopped fighting it.

For whom am I to question the call?

So let me ask you this:

Do you feel it too — that urgency to create?

Maybe it’s not writing for you. Maybe it’s a business idea that keeps nudging you awake. Or a career pivot you can’t stop thinking about. A creative project you’ve shelved for “someday.” A message you know you’re meant to share.

Have you started? Or have you been ignoring the longing, convincing yourself that now isn’t the right time, that you’re not ready, that no one would care anyway?

But what if you just... went for it?

Maybe what you create stays private — just for you. Or maybe it’s meant to be shared.

Maybe it evokes an emotion, a memory, or a dream in someone else. Maybe your creation brings them a moment of joy, or a lifetime of inspiration.

You won’t know until you answer the call.

This Week’s Invitation for You

Maybe the longing keeping you up at night isn't a creative project — it's a career that no longer fits.
