Hugh Macleod who draws cartoons on the backs of business cards, explains how to be creative:
So you want to be more creative, in art, in business, whatever. Here are some tips that have worked for me over the years:
- Ignore everybody.
- Creativity is its own reward.
- Put the hours in.
- If your biz plan depends on you suddenly being “discovered” by some big shot, your plan will probably fail.
- You are responsible for your own experience.
- Everyone is born creative; everyone is given a box of crayons in kindergarten.
- Keep your day job.
- Companies that squelch creativity can no longer compete with companies that champion creativity.
- Everybody has their own private Mount Everest they were put on this earth to climb.
- The more talented somebody is, the less they need the props.
- Don’t try to stand out from the crowd; avoid crowds altogether.
- If you accept the pain, it cannot hurt you.
