According to John Cleese, keeping a list and checking it twice is not a good way to encourage creative thinking. Cleese is a well-known actor and purveyor of strange and wondrous funny bits. He advises people to create a stress-free area where they can shed their everyday worries and let their creativity soar. He contends that individuals need an actual place, with time and space boundaries, that will allow them to release their creative energy. Cleese also points out it takes the same skills for people to know they’re good at something as actually being good at something. Conversely, people who are terrible at something are totally clueless about their lack of talent or effectiveness. Read the entire article here: John Cleese on the Origin of Creativity
