6 of the rules to be followed by every creative person

The creative person should be able to see what others do not see, try to make the world better and to listen to your inner voice. Layfhaker gathered a few important rules of the best books on the works, which will help you find inspiration.

1. Learn the art of small steps

If you - an aspiring musician and want to learn to play the piano, then sit down at him and touch keys. Fine. Tomorrow you can sit down again at the piano and play. Five minutes a day is better than zero.

Five minutes can turn into ten, just like a light embrace could escalate into something more passionate.

A book you can not write today, and one page - completely. You can not in a moment become a famous pianist, but is able to allocate 15 minutes for music lessons. Suppose that today you can not count on a solo exhibition, but it is able to draw his cocker spaniel, imposingly ensconced in an old leather chair. You can start.

2. Upryamtes to make this world a better place

Best-selling author Julia Cameron therapist advised to focus on the Secretary career, but she continued to write. Famous director Martin Scorsese's documentary was removed from the project, but he continued to make films. Lawyer John Grisham, who "should" spend time "case" proved that he too ought to write.

Fortunately for us, the artists - people stubborn. These people listen to your inner voice, and a few external voices whispering - or shouting, which is also know who we really are. Learn from them confidence, then you too will be able to change his destiny.

3. Behave "as if"

A simple way to develop a creativity and creative confidence - to behave "as if". Draw like you Van Gogh, write like Kipling. Proceed as if deserve a job, you want to get. Work as if you are a first-class officer.

4. Do not be a victim

Change begins in the heart. Starting from the inside and moving outward, expressing their love and their values, we improve their lives, feel better, and the world as a whole becomes healthier. It is because of the need for time and time again to choose the position of the victim excludes creativity. When life seems unfair, to the question "Do you want something to do with it?" The correct creative answer will be "Yes".

5. Develop the ability to see

That inner vision allows you to notice what is missing to the product, and also helps to see what no one has seen before. This is an incredible human gift - to see beyond the present and the past and from the unknown to extract something that did not exist until now.

We need to just close your eyes and listen for long. All around us, in the air, always sounds something previously unheard of.

6. Stay in the works frivolous

Then you will be able to perform more serious work. Here's a paradox. The greater burden of the charge, the more restricted we feel, the more vulnerable we become the face of creativity failure.

At the sight of the word "perfection" spirit of spontaneity flies out the window. You start to think that you can not be considered a great composer, if you allow yourself to compose a simple lullaby or children fooling around, improvising on the piano. We are so bow before the "great" art, that chronically underestimate yourself. We are so worried about whether we can play in the big leagues that do not play at all.

Anything that is worth doing, it is necessary to do, even if it is bad. The stronger your appetite for adventure, the more adventurous set of creative elements in the hands, when you get to work.
