Do you consider and identify yourself as being a creative? In a recent study by Adobe they found that only 39% worldwide identified themselves as being creative.
I work with great experts to create online courses, retreats, workshops and live events. Something I have noticed from the attendees, is that they often want to get back to the creativity bug again after some major life event. But why is it that they wait until that major event before getting back to creating?
Picasso said “Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once they grow up.”
In this episode I look at why so few people consider themselves creative and what we can do about it.
