Creativity

Howdy from Jaclyn in Aggieland!

I wish I were more creative. I want to be able to write poetry and songs, to paint and draw, to write... and all in a way that moves people. I feel like it is all in my head, but something prevents it from coming from my brain to the paper. How do you grow creativity?

Thanks and Gig 'Em!

    It's like math, practice, practice, practice. Even the great artists had to hone their craft. So, just start creating. It might be junk at first, but in time I know you will do great!

    Ira Glass (creator of This American Life) has a thought for you, and it is similar to Ryan's: http://vimeo.com/24715531

"Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"
"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to," said the Cat.
"I don't much care where --" said Alice.
"Then it doesn't much matter which way you go," said the Cat.
"--- so long as I get somewhere," Alice added as an explanation.
"Oh, you're sure to do that," said the Cat, "if only you walk long enough."
