Hello All! Over the years I have gathered information on creativity from a variety of sources. Much of the writings on creativity have been out there for a long time and if you have read much on this subject you will recognize many of the buzz words as you jump around the internet. For example, I repeatedly hear the words, "artist date." Bingo-Julia Cameron. She wrote the book The Artist's Way. This is a great book with lots of thoughts for creatives'. Some other words that come to mind are:
- out of the box
- paradigm shift
- viral
- time management
- big idea
- take it to the next level
I believe that creativity is the ability to look at the ordinary and see the EXTRAordinary. Not an easy feat. As I am working to build my blog and think "outside the box," I wonder about what it really means to me to "take it to the next level." These are the key points for the "paradigm" I am applying to the creation of my blog.
1. Develop the appropriate skills
2. It is all a matter of perspective
3. Break the mold
4. Making mistakes is part of the process
5. There is ALWAYS more than one way
6. Be passionate and persistance in pursuit
What principles do you use in your creative pursuits?
