I love how you highlight the relativity of creativity!

Your story about the chip bowl hack really resonates—sometimes, we underestimate our own creative moments because they feel dull or ordinary to us. I've learned that writing what seems ordinary to me can be a spark of inspiration for someone else.

If we all took a moment to look at our everyday tasks through a curious lens, who knows what innovative ideas might emerge? It’s an exciting thought, Scott.

I hope you have a fantastic week ahead.

For sure Neela. Whenever I've worked with people who get stuck at this point or who don't believe in their own creativity, I just ask them to look back at something they've done and shift it over one degree. It's really fulfilling to see the sparks of creativity come to life.

Thanks for your reflections Neela, I appreciate it!
