The Answer Will Only Arrive After We

If You're Trying To Be More Creative, One Of The Most Important Things You Can Do Is Increase The Volume And Diversity Of The Information To Which You Are Exposed.

We Travel Because We Need To, Because Distance And Difference Are The Secret Tonic Of Creativity. When We Get Home, Home Is Still The Same. But Something In Our Mind Has Been Changed, And That Changes Everything. Several New Science Papers Suggest That Getting Away Is An Essential Habit Of Effective Thinking. When We Escape From The Place We Spend Most Of Our Time, The Mind Is Suddenly Made Aware Of All Those Errant Ideas We'd Previously Suppressed. We Start Thinking About Obscure Possibilitiebsthat Never Would Have Occurred To Us If We'd Stayed Home.

We Need To Be Willing To Risk Embarrassment, Ask Silly Questions, Surround Ourselves With People Who Don't Know What We're Talking About. We Need To Leave Behind The Safety Of Our Expertise.

What You Discover When You Look At Creativity From The Perspective Of The Brain Is That It Is Universal. We're All Creative All Of The Time, We Can't Help But Be Creative.
