Sometimes creativity starts with a flash of inspiration, but that actually happens quiet rare. Most creations are made by people who simply think about the idea, get started and stick with it.

Certainly it is romantic to believe in a special Muse who bestows her creative brilliance upon you from time to time. But in between those magic moments, it's good to have a more practical plan.

In fact, all sorts of magnificent fruits of creativity come through plain old hard work. From rocket ships to poems, from musical compositions to magnificent paintings, creativity is an everyday affair.

You don't have to be a celebrated artist or film director or rocket scientist to be meaningfully creative. You just have to take the time, do the work, and put your love, care and attention into it.

Life is a continuing creative process. Gather inspiration from all around you and bring it's goodness to life. Whether your Muse is calling to you or not, create something wonderful out of every day! :)
