Live Out There

We sometimes forget that the world worth living is out there.

We forget that we need to step out of our heads and create this new world - it is not going to happen by merely wishing for it.

As with anything in life - it is a balance that needs to be struck - the balance between organising what you want to create in your head - and then coming out of your head and making it happen. We either get stuck in one or the other and create a "synthetic" balance. The synthetic balance is a world of excuses and justifications.

The difference I once heard between creativity and innovation is that creativity is thinking of new ways to do things but innovation is doing things in a new way.

Innovation is the manifestation of creativity.

They are part and parcel of the same process - you need 'em both to make magic.

So be innovative with your creativity.
