Awakening Genius:
What Is Your Unique Gift?
Each of us possesses a unique genius, a singular gift, a creative impulse. Recognizing this innate power is the first step in harnessing it. As Mark Matousek tells us, “Insight is the key to this power, desire its fuel.” To unlock this genius, we must tune into “the whisper only we can hear,” and then direct our innate impulses with determination and courage. Your genius need not be headline-worthy or dramatic, but you will often discover that it has been present since early childhood. Trusting in this natural gift helps to unlock your full potential.
Through self-inquiry and focused writing exercises, this six-week course will empower you and help you tap into your own unique creative genius.
This Six-Week Course Is Only $67 USD
“Mark Matousek is an insightful, compelling, and incisive teacher…truthful, direct, open, and compassionate. He takes students on a provocative journey to places we need to go if we are to live and create from our deepest selves.”
-Marcia Lippman, photographer
While our gifts are our natural inheritance, their realization isn’t guaranteed. Many of us are divided within, torn between emotions, logic, impulses, shame, and fear.
It’s no wonder we often feel disconnected from our own genius. Mark Matousek reminds us, “The more we learn to tell the truth about our own desires, the less afraid we become. As fear subsides, passion grows stronger and brings the force of genius with it. ”
The journey to awakening your genius is about bringing your unique aptitudes into reality and nurturing your full potential. Ready to transform fear into passion and unlock your true capabilities? Take the first step now!
