Popular ArticlesCreate Useful Creations That Could Even Save A Life Someday
Now here’s a creation that looks to be quite useful – that is if you are a rescue worker. It’s called the Braun Post-Disaster Emergency Foot Protective Accessory. It’s a big name for something with a big purpose. It is for rescue workers who are on scene of disasters like earthquakes.
Due to the rubble, and dangerous topography after such calamities, the feet of the rescue workers are most vulnerable and susceptible to injury and infection. Shards of glass, nails, debris etc. can hamper the mission and walking over them always poses a threat.
Enter the Braun Post-Disaster Emergency Foot Protective Accessory: These handy contraptions fit snugly over the workers shoes and protect their feet from accidental nips and cuts. Thanks to its sturdy structure the rescue worker can complete the job confidently, knowing their feet are protected. It’s a two-part thing with a steel and silica gel insole and an over-the-shoe strap-up.
I’d like to comment on one other thing that I noticed about designer Huang Zheng and his creation. Too many people think that in order for you to qualify as a creator, or for your creations to qualify as being creations that they must necessarily be something big in scope. Meaning they have to have huge appeal, with broad recognition. That simply is not the case.
The Braun Post-Disaster Emergency Foot Protective Accessory isn’t something that has mass appeal, neither is it something that is universally useful, but it qualifies as a creation (quite well done I might add) and Huang Zheng qualifies as a creator.
The fact that you create qualifies you as a creator, and what you create is unarguably a creation. Stop selling your creations short, and give yourself, the creator, some credit. Once you get started creating you never know what useful and handy creations with big purposes that you will create.
Designer: Huang Zheng
Stop Resisting and Create Something Great!
In my work I have chosen the positive approach. I never think of myself as protesting against something, but rather as witnessing for harmonious living. Those who witness for, present solutions. Those who witness against, usually do not–they dwell on what is wrong, resorting to judgment and criticism and sometimes even name-calling. Naturally, the negative approach has a detrimental effect on the person who uses it, while the positive approach has a good effect. When an evil is attacked, the evil mobilizes, although it may have been weak and unorganized before, and therefore the attack gives it validity and strength. When there is no attack, but instead good influences are brought to bear upon the situation, not only does the evil tend to fade away, but the evildoer tends to be transformed. The positive approach inspires; the negative approach makes angry. When you make people angry, they act in accordance with their base instincts, often violently and irrationally. When you inspire people, they act in accordance with their higher instincts, sensibly and rationally. Also, anger is transient, whereas inspiration sometimes has life-long effect.
Peace Pilgrim
What you resist persists. If you are pushing against something then it is for sure pushing back. This just happens to be one of those irrefutable laws that cannot be changed.
It’s as powerful as the law of gravity. In fact the law of gravity helps this law out. Think about pumping iron. What force pulls the weights downward? Gravity.
I’m just want you to think about it for a few minutes. Is there something in your life that you don’t want, but day in, day out you push against it, you resist it? If so, then know that you are giving it life. You are the one giving it the strength to live on in your life.
If you are poor and you are resisting poverty then you are the one who is allowing poverty to live in your existence. If you are sick and you keep popping pills, or going to the doctors, or thinking about how awful you feel – you are the one who is giving that disease the life it needs to live on.
I know this is all so much easier said than done, but you are your creator. Always have been – always will be . . .
Create something great!
