Quotes Creativity is part of my life. I don’t know how not be creative and resourceful. Creativity is resourcefulness. It’s the ability to conjure things out nothing. It’s important to do hard things. It doesn’t matter whether something is hard or not, just do it. Fail once or twice but just do it. Put yourself in position where you can meet new people and get new opportunities. Open yourself up for critique instead of locking yourself in a cocoon. I exist. You’re not going to erase that. I’m going to put myself in your face. I’m going to ask you questions. I’m going to interact with you, challenge your ideas and put mine forward because the bottom line of our creativity is the quality of our ideas. That’s how I manage. A creative who doesn’t have respect for their craft is an amateur. Learn the rules of the game and play by them.
