A master in the art of living draws no sharp distinction between his work and his play; his labor and his leisure; his mind and his body; his education and his recreation. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence through whatever he is doing, and leaves others to determine whether he is working or playing. To himself, he always appears to be doing both.
From over a century ago - French writer, François-René de Chateaubriand

The planet does not need more ‘successful people’. The planet desperately needs more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers and lovers of all kinds. It needs people to live well in their places. It needs people with moral courage willing to join the struggle to make the world habitable and humane and these qualities have little to do with success as our culture is the set.
~Tenzin Gyatso, The 14th Dalai Lama

A Creative Or An Innovator?

catalystparadigm:

via creativesomething:

What’s the difference between creativity and innovation?

Creativity deals with original thought, asking “what comes next?” Innovation is about building on what already exists, focusing on ways to improve something already established.

Creatives are dreamers, innovators are builders.

About

Nurturing The Creative Mind Of Our Future Change Makers.

There is a concept known as 'beginner’s mind' which is said to be an attitude of openness, eagerness and lack of preconceptions, very similar to that of a child.

This site explores the 'beginner's mind' creative abilities of children at play and the connection to design thinkers and innovators.

Children are open to exploration, discovery and experimentation. They learn about their world around them by pushing the limits, discovering what’s possible and what’s not.

Children are hard-wired to be creative, imaginative and innovative- abilities that often diminish along the way.

Maybe we can better understand these inherent creative skills during play and learning, to help us encourage and support a new breed of innovative thinkers more prepared to solve future challenges of our world.
