So the only way I’m going to create is if I don’t stop and analyze it. Once you’ve taken the time to experience, then create. There’s the guy whose garden of ceramic animals grows by the day…and the “can man,” who collects a shopping cart full of bottles and cans-the sounds of him sorting them at night ring though my window. There’s the Vietnam Vet with the prosthetic leg and a sign in his window commenting on the state of politics (it changes weekly). There are the dogs I recognize but always forget their names. The comfort between the two makes me think she’s cared for him since he was an infant. In one three-block walk to the subway I’ll see a nanny waiting on the corner with a little boy, his arms wrapped around her leg and his head resting on her thigh. I just walk out of my door and I’m hit with experiences. But if traveling isn’t in your budget, just open your eyes to your own neighborhood. Write, draw, paint, read, dance like a fool…whatever it is that I want to do better, I do as often as I can.Ĭreate experiences. How do I inspire creativity? Just like the Nike slogan, I “Just Do It”.
