Nothing dies harder than a bad idea.
— Julia Cameron
Mystery is at the heart of creativity. That, and surprise.
What we really want to do is what we are really meant to do. When we do what we are meant to do, money comes to us, doors open for us, we feel useful, and the work we do feels like play to us.
Art is not about thinking something up. It is the opposite - getting something down.
Creativity - like human life itself - begins in darkness.
The creative process is a process of surrender, not control.
Each of us has an inner dream that we can unfold if we will just have the courage to admit what it is. And the faith to trust our own admission. The admitting is often very difficult.
