Creativity is a Spiritual Experience

“Creativity is a spiritual experience. Express your self.
Express your nature.”

Dear Friends & Colleagues,

During the last 12 years that I have been developing and applying One-Thought-One-Action (OTOA) it’s become very clear that the same OTOA principles that bring clarity and enrichment to the staged event are just as meaningful when applied to individual and collective growth off the stage.

I have come to see how the principles of OTOA are not only fundamental tools for enhancing the craft of the performance arena, but that these same principles also offer a practical, versatile and pragmatic approach to daily living, useful tools for enriching new projects, as well as basic support for the discipline of a creative practice in any field and for every enterprise.

These observations revealed the need for bringing the benefits of OTOA into a wider realm of application, and it is with this intention that I have developed a new OTOA-based curriculum, which I call Creative Life Practice (CLP).

OTOA CLP, offers an approach for untangling professional, personal or creative road-blocks, revealing hidden obstacles, articulating goals and objectives in an effort to chart a creative and more unified path forward.

OTOA's practice of incremental thought and action is the preliminary step for managing all our aspirations, no matter what the project --big or small, personal or communal, quotidian or visionary.

OTOA Founder & Master Teacher
