Here Is How To Be More Creative Day 5.

Some people will tell us that certain people are born creative. These individuals came out of the womb instantly coming up with well defined and successful ideas from the very beginning of their lives. Picasso picked up a paint brush and whipped up "The Old Guitarist" in a flash. Richard Branson developed his first business, and it was an overnight success. Steve Martin hopped on stage and got people laughing on his first try. The Dali Lama just knew how to lead people right into a compassionate existence. Right?

Yeah. No.

When we meet someone who is infinitely creative and successful, there is a secret they hold. These creative leaders worked their tail feathers off every day. They doodled, refined, wrote, sketched, refined their work over and over and over again. 

When it didn't work, they tried again. 

And again.

They had doubts and they wanted to give up but they didn't. The most important thing they did was sit down and work out ideas.

The ideas will be bad. 

There will be failures.

But they did the work anyway.

One day they create something that changes the world around them, shifts perspectives and redefines something bigger. That's creativity at work.
