Creative Endeavor

What is Creative Endeavor:

Creative Endeavor is a value entirely focused on improving the Quality of Life in our World; Improving it in a way that enhances the physical and spiritual aspects of Our Lives.

Creative Endeavor is when one spends time, energy, thought and action; entirely directed at creating, building a more Life Supportive World around us.

The aim of course, is to strengthen our opportunity to grow physically, mentally, and spiritually in the most healthy manner possible; so we can achieve the most from our short journey on Earth.

The Creation can be Scientific, Mathematical, Biological, Mechanical, Social, Psychological, Religious, Artistic, Literary, Linguistic, Musical, Medical, Organizational, Economic,

Or Philanthropic.

Any human endeavor that seeks to: Research, Discover, Create, Invent, Innovate, or Build the Infrastructure of our Lives, … is at the very Heart of Creative Endeavor.

Creative Endeavor is about our Aspirations, the Personal Investment of our Time, our Energy our Conviction, our Diligence, our Natural or Learned Talents … and applying it All to the Ingenuity, necessary to Life-Building, Life-Supportive, and Life-Sustaining Accomplishment.

In so doing, We improve the Total Life Condition and Quality for Humanity and All other Life.

Creative Endeavor requires a great deal of hard work, self-reliance, determination and the efficient use or our time and resources; to do more with less and achieve.

Creative Endeavor is self-discovery and use of those Talents that are God-Given.

Anti-Value: Sloth

Sloth is the opposite of Creative Endeavor.

Sloth is the failure to do things One Could Do for Themselves or Humankind; but choose not to.

It is a willful wasting of valuable time and resources on indolence or indifference. It is squandering Our Abilities on things that are not conducive to Building a Better World.

It is misapplying One’s Abilities and Talents towards Destroying or Coarsening Our Culture through a Deliberate Misuse of the Arts and Sciences: War Making, Pornography, Germ Warfare, Vice Marketing, Drugs.

Sloth of mind, body, and heart caused through inaction, inattention, or misdirection, is Deadly.

Sloth inevitably leads to a reduction, a destruction, a worsening and Degradation

of our World And Life.
