Have you ever become so lost in your creativity that you don't know what you are doing? I sometimes become so caught up in the writing of the moment that I don't realize what I am saying. I read my writing a day or two later and am surprised by what I said. The more I can quiet the conscious mind and let the subconscious mind take charge, the more creative the writing becomes.
The difference between the conscious mind and subconscious mind is one of control. The subconscious is more wild, free and metaphoric. The conscious mind is more analytical, linear and controlling. Creativity requires entering the subconscious and exploring the world through its eyes. The more we try to control our art the less creative and original it becomes. The more we relinquish control, the stronger the creative impulse.
