Co-Creation
Author: Molly Gordon

It occurred to me as I was driving up the highway to buy berries at a local farm that all creation is co-creation. I’d been musing about the difference between times of ease and forward momentum and times of struggle. At the risk of oversimplifying things (and keeping this week’s quotes firmly in mind), I suspect the difference can usually be found in whether or not I am aligning my intentions and energy with what might be variously termed "the flow," "circumstances," or even "God’s will."

As I considered this, reflecting on various experiences from making art, to coaching, to being a wife, to leading workshops, I realized that such alignment is essential in order to harness co-creative power. Whether or not we ascribe a benevolent intelligence to forces beyond our ken, we can choose to be aware of how those forces appear to be moving. We can attune ourselves to opportunities for flowering as well as seasons for incubation or renewal. We can harness trends, hop on bandwagons, even lead the pack…but only if we pay attention to the forces that generate the trend, build the bandwagon or motivate the pack.

It strikes me as not only arrogant but foolish, then, to imagine myself a lone mover in a creative process. Even if such a thing were possible, how much richer it seems, and how much more organic, to show up each day as a junior partner, eager, interested, even hungry for the next creative possibility. Here aspiration and humility seem to co-exist in a dynamic way, a way that supports dreaming big dreams and playing a bigger game without becoming inflated or driven.

Today, during another peaceful drive, I was musing similarly about what I mean when I talk about the effortlessness that I experience when I am acting in alignment with co-creative forces. It is not an absence of work, for part of the satisfaction I get from co-creation is a sense of expending energy in a focused and intense manner. Perhaps this sense of effortlessness comes from feeling so supported in co-creation that I am aware that the results I get are greater than the personal energy I invest. It is as if I am carrying a very heavy and very large log across a field along with many others. Each of us is putting energy into moving the log, yet there are so many of us working in such perfect concert that none of us experiences anything like struggle.

I hope your week is full of such effortless productivity!
