1. Study people you admire
2. Try out new experiences and opportunities
3. Don't let labels restrict you
Love the message that creativity is all about combining from diverse sources. Awesome video!

This video was awesome - now committed to reading neuromancer. The effort you put into the script shows

[studyquill]

i'm like 99% sure that this video is going to change my life (or rather, inspire new ideas on how i can change my own life)

One of my favorite things to do weekly is the “artist date” where I take my inner artist on a solo date to explore or experience something new, completely out of my usual daily activities and concerns ... purely for delight and without any ‘reason’ ... inspired by Julia Cameron. I can confidently say this activity pays great dividends... and not just in my stock trading domain✨
Beautiful message, beautifully crafted episode! ✨👏🏻😍

The struggle of a creator is unfathomable. You need to fight:
-Your demons
-Resistance
-Creator's block
-Banality and cliches
-Repetition
-The "genius" and impatience of the crowd
-The viciousness of the critics
-Your success
But it's worth every second of it.
Go all the way.

Best opening line - The Restaurant at the End of the Universe:

"The story so far: 
In the beginning the Universe was created. 
This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move."


Thank you very much Douglas Adams <3

Creativity needs some free mental space - if you have a cluttered mind, creativity will be difficult to achieve

What the hell is editing on this one. This should be on netflix

I just started reading again and my creativity has been off the charts in the last couple of weeks! So it really helps! Also, starting a Youtube channel and having that as a creative outlet (instead of focusing 150% on my corporate job) has made me a lot happier overall. Thanks for the content Thomas Frank, keep making people creative!

My favorite quote about exploration from my favorite phd was: "In order to discover your 'self, ' do the things you haven't done; and don't do the things you have done today." This was all about going out of the comfort zone but seemed so simple that I've turned it into my motto easily.

[DonVFilmoraTutorials]

Can't believe you put out high quality videos like this weekly! Incredible job.

[ViolettaViolinist]

2020-2021 was THE WORST for new experiences! No wonder it’s so hard to be inspired: we’ve been stuck at home, surrounded by awful news every day. You’re basically left to your own motivation, and here’s where videos like this are invaluable. Thank you.

[andreferreira]

You definitely are the godfather of the productivity creators. This vídeo resonates so much with me 🙏 big hug from Portugal 🇵🇹

[Yppy]

Honestly I always felt I am not creative because I just combine things I experience... Little did I know, that's the definition of creativity.

[rebeccasperring]

Lol. I’ve realised I watch all 6 “productivity” guys.
