Hello First name / Friend,,
 
We’re back with Zara Veerapan-Padayachy for the last challenge of the month!
 
“Hello I'm Zara, Team Administrator at 64 Million Artists. Today, I have curated a contemplative challenge for our wonderful community to try. This is my last one so I sincerely hope you enjoy it. Take care.”
 
A huge thank you to Zara for inviting us to discover new perspectives each week throughout March - through stretching, dreaming and more - we’ve had so much fun along the way. Where might this weeks challenge lead you?

"Describe yourself. What traits are you “known” for by others?
Go ahead and write a list - and only stop when the tank runs dry!
 
Pick 3 adjectives from this list that you feel most represent you, then flip the script.
 
Write the opposite trait next to these words (there might be multiple, so just pick your favourite). For example:
 
Organised / Disorganised
Funny / Serious
Hardworking / Lazy
 
Look at this new list. Think about how these “opposite” traits might work to feed your creative spirit. Maybe the "opposite' words inspire the way you write, take a photograph or make a rhythm!
 
Perhaps being a bit more disorganised might make way for spontaneity? Or being a bit more serious and disciplined might get you to learn a new instrument? Maybe embracing your laziness might clear your mind for original thinking?
 
This is a process of expansion!"

Has your perception of the "opposite" changed after doing the challenge? 
 
"Let’s be honest - labels can be limiting. Whether it’s the dominant personality traits you have, your job title (or at-home role) or even your star sign! 
 
This challenge is a low stakes opportunity to step out of these boxes. You might find it liberating, terrifying or ideally: fun! 
But it’s also a great opportunity to build on your compassion muscle, to walk in someone else’s shoes. In this unchartered territory who knows what sources of inspiration you may stumble across?"
