Improve creativity

To be creative is to embark on a long journey. I can’t promise where you’ll end up, but I know where we’ll start. In this book, I’ll explain why keeping an orderly and quiet life will help you prepare for fantastic and wild ideas.

I’ll also guide you through setting up your workplace or where you work for success, the difference between efficiency and effectiveness and how to feed your subconscious. You’ll discover why knowing your guiding purpose is just as important as feeling inspired about your creative projects.You’ll learn how a mentor can help you face your fears and overcome everyday obstacles.And you’ll find out what to do if you can’t find one.

I cannot think of anything more powerful for writers, musicians or artists than a daily creative habit. So, I’ll guide you through which ones to cultivate and what to ignore. I’ll explain why strengthening your mind and body and working hard is key to fresh thinking. But what if you’re feeling exhausted? Well, you can always turn to one of your side projects like television director, producer and writer, which will be  explained later.

Finally, we’ll go to war. We’re going to conquer any fears you have about creativity or your craft and then move boldly forward. In this blog, I’ll draw on scientific studies (because we can all benefit from a little science), and I’ll also examine the lives of contemporary and past creative masters from the arts, business, technology and more. 

This blog, in particular, is for anyone who has ever thought “I have a hard time being creative” or “I would like to discover my passion” or even “the prospects of my work being rejected is terrifying”. If you’re an artist adrift, I wrote this blog for you. I’m not all sunshine, rainbows and lollipops, so if you’re looking for a shortcut to a six-figure paycheque or a glittering review in the Newspaper, get out now.

When I read blogs that tackle subjects like creativity, I’m struck by how distant the writer is from his or her research, and how dry the material reads. It’s as if a SERIOUS topic like creativity warrants objective distance and emotional detachment. Yet, reader loses when an author’s detachment results in dry prose devoid of storytelling and steeped in research and critical analysis.Regardless of whether the material between the covers is worth the slog, those blogs are just not much fun to read. I don’t want you to lose. I’ve put as much of myself and as many illuminating stories about habit-building, conquering your fears and nurturing your creativity into this blog as possible. But, you’ve been waiting long enough.

The creative process is as much about preparation and good habits as it is about moments of inspiration.Creative masters keep a schedule ,they treat their work seriously, and get to it whether they're inspired or not.We too can cultivate creative habits that changes our life.
