Stop Trying to be Creative by Jay Sankey

How to Nurture Your Natural Creativity

By accessing more of your natural creativity, you'll gain the ability to share more of your powerfully unique perspective in business meetings, emails and high-pressure presentations, while bringing more value to your role at work.

Many people are intimidated by the idea of trying to 'be creative.'

Creativity can be so layered with emotions, associations and assumptions, it becomes just another hurdle for people to overcome when trying to access their creativity.

But unlike the daunting prospect of 'trying to create,' the Exploration Approach is less about a goal-oriented making, and more about a playful discovering.

And in your private life, expressing yourself more creatively will help to nurture more honest and powerful relationships with friends and family.

Learning the skills and attitudes to more effectively access your creativity, will also make you a more engaging, memorable, and compelling communicator.
