520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc The ability to think and work creatively is a hugely fulfilling aspect of life and an asset in any profession. For some it comes naturally, for others it might seem an unattainable skill.<br/><br/>Not so! By working through the techniques and questionnaires offered here, anyone can improve their creative skills. The author provides a very simple and easily applied six-phase model of the creative process: Inspiration –­spontaneously generating ideas; Clarification – focusing on what you are trying to achieve; Distillation – deciding which of your ideas to work on; Perspiration – pushing your ideas to completion; Incubation – harnessing the power of your unconscious; Evaluation – considering how to improve your work, and learn from it.<br/><br/>Once you can choose and use each phase appropriately, along with its unique tools and mind-sets, you will begin to realise your full creative potential. Not all your life needs to be spent reacting to others and to circumstances; this book shows you how to express your unique talents and nature through creative action.<br/><br/>Complete with checklists and self- assessment questionnaires, this book will ensure that you develop your creativity in a practical way.
