"Creativity is intelligence having fun."

Inspiration

Everyone is creative. 

 

I haven’t met anyone yet that hasn’t performed a creative act, even something as simple as finger painting.  But for many of us, as we grow older, the critical voice – maybe from within us, or maybe from someone else – convinces us that we aren’t creative.  That only the special few are gifted with the capacity for creativity.

 

The truth is, creativity is in everyone… it just needs to be reawakened in some of us.  And the rewards for doing can be enormous on personal, professional and social levels. Understanding that everything is designed helps puts a different lens on the way we view the world… and with reinvigorated creativity, everyone – yes even you – have the ability to take action, design objects and experiences, and change the world toward a better future.
