I recently read a fascinating article on unleashing creativity from Scientific America.
Executive editor Mariette DiChristina conducted a roundtable discussion involving three experts on creativity:
John Houtz is a psychologist and professor at Fordham University. His most recent book is The Educational Psychology of Creativity (Hamptom Press, 2002).
Julia Cameron is an award-winning poet, playwright and filmmaker. Her book The Artist’s Way (Jeremy P. Tarcher/Putnam, 2002) has sold more than three million copies worldwide. Her latest book is The Writing Diet.
Robert Epstein is a visiting scholar at the University of California, San Diego. Contributing editor for Scientific American Mind and former editor in chief of Psychology Today, Epstein has written several books on creativity, including The Big Book of Creativity Games (McGraw-Hill, 2000).
Below are a few quotes I found interesting.
Read the rest of the article and see what you cull from it. Perhaps it will inspire you to unleash more of your creative potential.
