THE COMPLETE CREATIVITY 100

1. Your knowledge of “what’s out there” makes you base your choices on your knowledge of what works and what doesn’t work

2. Creativity means creative choices of inclusion and exclusion (Robert Mckee)

3. What doesn’t work in one context - might work in another. Test your options

4. Creativity is interaction. Most of the time with real people

5. The biggest goal for your ideas is casualization. turning your idea into a trend that partly turns “mainstream” or “normal”

6. When an idea is casualized - work on a new idea. Be ahead of the market

7. Look at the past to predict the future. Patterns mostly form themselves and repeat themselves

8. Being the first is more important to creativity than to be the best. when somebody becomes the best - the first are being first in something else

9. Taking a creative project from a-z is a piece of art in itself. Sometimes the creative person can’t manage herself- he’s busy creating other ideas

10. Creative action speaks louder than creative words

11. You don’t really need to be tomorrow where you are today

12. you don’t need to have creative past to get a creative future

13. be a firestarter, a twisted firestarter

14. dare to be different, it will really get you further in the long run

15. Creative people are often disliked by other people. It’s often real hard for the creative person to accept that

16. See your body mind and spirit as a whole, get inspiration with new ways of eating, living, thinking etc

17. Make personal goals and keep them. Do you really want to write that book right now ? - how high priority does it have on a scale from 1- 10 ( 1 is the lowest)

18. Make all your thoughts positive instead of negative, don’t nag - think about what a negative situation gives you - in a positive way

19. Eliminate the word “against” in your mind. Don’t be against smoking or against war - be FOR health and FOR peace

20. Eliminate “forever” and “never” in your mind. This will contribute to reducing you reluctance to change and in the end make your person more in sync

21. Don’t go where no man has gone before - go where YOU haven’t gone before - if you don’t like it, see it as an experience, if you do - use it to grow further

22. what do you really want ? get a friend to ask you that question again and again for 5 mins - and write it down

23. put beauty in everything - live beautifully and clean up your mess

24. Smile, try meditation and yoga

25. Don’t react negatively to anything, tell people to their face what you think of the way they are behaving

26. Is the processes you have in your life right now draining your energy or giving you energy ? - if it’s draining your energy, get yourself out of there…

27. how do you feel when you have eaten ? tired or energized ? if you fell tired the likelyhood of a food intolerance is big

28. Dress up everyday

29. Be green - this will change your world ( and it will give you the energy to save the world)

30. Tell friends how much you appreciate them - do they know ?

31. Make your marks in the sand, claim what is yours before somebody else does

32. What do you want to do right now ?

33. Do it

45: give people the answers they are looking for, if you can give it to them.. ( and give it to the ASAP - I simply hate hanging on a leash)

46: if you’re in flow, you’re in flow - stop all arrangements and stay there - tell your family that if you say you simply “need” to do something - it’s because you’re in flow.

47: don’t put other people’s priorities first, put your own priorities first.

48: entrepreneurs: get paid for the work you do - if they don’t want to pay you, then they don’t deserve you ( or don’t value you enough) - but hold your head high - it’s hard to live under water

49: listen to music and podcasts - entertain and be entertained

50: have another glass of wine

51: party like there’s no tomorrow… examine the world as if you were born today

52: make yourself an “I am good” book. write down 3 points where you start with “I am good at…”. Then write down 3 points where you start with “Thank you for”. At last write down 3 points where you start with “help me with”… put everything out there - don’t care who you thank or who you ask for help.. just do it everynight before you go to bed… It will get you somewhere…

53: watch movies

54: stop watching TV

55: picture what will be written on your tombstone - picture you’re a hundred and look back at your life, what do you want to be remembered for?

56: take a ceramics course, when you’ve had enough take a guitar course, when you play the guitar to perfection - study literature at the university… keep evolving yourself..
