“Once you have your vision and the end goal then you can be creative about the approach to get there.”

Perspective runs everything around me.

How you see determines how you live.

Does creativity mean you need to become an artist? Do you have to become an emotional hipster? No, creativity can be found in everyone from the plumber to the sea captain.

When you’re creating something from nothing, you’re being creative. When life is lived through the lens of creativity, we can open ourselves up to serendipity and our life’s greatest work.

“Your life is a movie, are you watching it, or are you directing it?”
