The Power of Structure for Boosting Creativity

Pablo Picasso once said, "Our goals can only be reached through a vehicle of a plan, in which we must fervently believe, and upon which we must vigorously act. There’s no other route to success." This sentiment resonates deeply with anyone who has ever grappled with the challenge of balancing creativity with structure. At first glance, creativity might seem like a free spirit, unbound by rules or routines. But in reality, even the most spontaneous... read more ›

The Paradox of Creative Freedom: How to Embrace Constraints

Let's dive into a paradox that's been on my mind lately: the idea that in a world of boundless creative freedom, we can sometimes feel utterly... stuck. It's like standing in front of a canvas that stretches endlessly in every direction, and feeling overwhelmed about where to place that first brushstroke. Sound familiar? You see, while the allure of unlimited possibilities and unfettered exploration is undeniably seductive, it can also be paralyzing. It's like being... read more ›

12 Secrets for Unlocking Your Most Creative Work

A lot of my breakthrough creative thoughts come to me when least expected.

7 Habits for Creativity + the Missing Link

chasejarvis_zen
Here are 7 habits that I use to help my creativity: 1. Get into adventures. Instead of saying no, say yes. Whether it's agreeing going to the South China Sea or to Sundance festival or the grocery store. 2. Devour popular culture. Examine the work of other artists, movies, books, magazines, the interwebs. 3. Take pictures of things. I photograph things I see in the world that inspire me and use them for reference. 4.... read more ›

Time for some CHANGES around here!

We're into the new year and everyone's talking about resolutions and goals... lose weight, quit drinking, teach yourself some new skills. Yet something like 1 in 3 folks give up before the end of the first month. What gives? I'm cutting to the punchline on this one: 'Change' by itself sounds so big and ominous. But it's not. At its core, change is just making the 'right' decision toward the outcome you want enough time... read more ›
