Pay attention

“Are You Paying Attention?” is an assignment giving by aVenture Lab class – A Crash Course to Creativity. Our mission was go and take pictures at different places,

then create a presentation that captures your INSIGHTS and HIDDEN OPPORTUNITIES.

As an educator, I immediately saw opportunities to teach. Embedding quotes and photos, I created a slide presentation that gives evidence for why paying attention matters.

“You can become blind by

seeing each day as a

similar one.

Each day is a different one, each day brings a miracle of its own.

It's just a matter of paying attention to this

miracle.”

~ Paulo Coelho

Is creativity in a box?

Perhaps. It is all about paying attention.

Luck is largely a matter of paying

attention.

Paying attention encourages our minds to find hidden opportunities

Creativity, which is the expression of our originality, helps us stay mindful that what we bring to the world is completely original and

cannot be compared. Brene Brown

Paying attention allows us to see art in random patterns.

Paying attention allows our mind to bend

Creating endless solutions.

Paying attention allows for reflection and new insights to our world.

Paying attention changes how we think

and is a catalyst encouraging new opportunities to stand out in a crowd.

Paying attention to why & what we think allows for a deeper thought

and welcomes the waters

of creativity to nourish our mind.

Paying attention

bridges the past

to our present.

Paying attention to who we are inspires us to find our talents and passions.

“Do stuff. be clenched, curious. Not waiting for inspiration's shove or society's kiss on your forehead.

Pay attention. It's all about paying attention. attention is vitality. It

connects you with others. It makes you eager. stay eager.”

― Susan Sontag
