Deep dives

Manifesting greatness as a gift to the universe

Greatness, as I now understand it, is a devotional kind of greatness, a gift to the universe and to God. When creating art, the goal should be to make something extraordinary and to offer it as a gift to God, pouring all our purest intentions into the work. It's about dedicating ourselves to the process and giving our best, no shortcuts. Manifesting greatness as an artist involves tapping into the universe's guidance, recognizing the right timing, and being open to the signs that indicate the path for our creative endeavors.
