To enter the mystery of creativity and return with ideas so fresh they boggle the mind, you may need to get devious. Tricky trackers use muse bait.
“When it comes to the right brain,
don’t defy it, supply it.”
Karen E. Peterson
Creativity Prompts take aim at your brilliant ideas, those moving targets lurking just beneath the surface of your thoughts. When you give the brain a puzzle wacky enough to cause a short-circuit, it’ll get out of the way to expose the muse and allow you to pounce.
Creativity is drawn to foolishness, head-scratching lostness, deviations from the norm, rebellion, implausibility, detours, apparent mishaps, and extravagance, so that’s what Creativity Prompts deliver. Locating your own brilliance requires devious departures from normal. Be prepared to tell reality to take a hike.
“Being realistic is the most commonly
traveled road to mediocrity.”
Will Smith
