How To Supercharge Your Creativity

MISSION
About this episode

Creativity... What is it?

Merriam Webster says its, "the ability to create OR the quality of being creative." But we're not so sure this definition is any bit helpful or insightful...

We believe creativity is, the use of the imagination or original ideas, especially in the production of an artistic work.”

Creativity is the one thing that can not (and arguably will never) be replicated by machines. It’s the potential source and solution to everything and all problems.

In today's episode, we highlight ideas and strategies to supercharge creativity in everyday life.
