4 lessons in creativity

What I had understood from this video was the 4 lessons of creativity.
1)    Experience
2)    Challenge
3)    Limitation
4)    Loss

Experience
  • must pay attention to the world around
Challenge
  • some of their best work comes out of the parts of their lives that have been the most difficult
  • must embrace challenge and change in lives
Limitation
  • artists speak about how pushing upon the limits of what they can and can’t do helps them find their own voice 
Loss
  • the hardest, the oldest and the most constant of human embraces
  • see the world and take what we hope for while facing rejection, heartbreak, war, and death, and turning that into something that we can use to help funnel our creativity
What i think about this video is that people are all wrestle with experience and challenge, limits, and loss. Creativity is essential to all of us whether we’re scientists, parents, artists, teachers, entrepreneurs, or students. It doesn’t matter if we’re a writer or a painter or a sculptor or a photographer, but we can all use these lessons to help bring out whatever we need for our creativity to flourish.
