Looking forward to reading this and pretty sure I have already requested a copy when it launches 🚀
“Passion is something we build from curiosity and action.” (and)
“If we learn how different emotions influence thinking and decision making, we can use it to our advantage.”
These two points resonated strongly and I feel they are interconnected as we are constantly building our curiosity if we are working towards something and we are driven by passion to make it happen and act on it. Throughout this process we are managing many different emotions. As an example; at times when our curiosity wanes we are experiencing deflating emotions or ‘stuck’ emotions. Personally as a creative thinker these are the most valuable emotions as I know the natural balance will always tip towards something more active - with emotions that free you and re-activate curiosity once again. This is because the creative process is designed to be challenging! Embracing that challenge takes skilful awareness of emotions. If we ignore them in the process they ‘shout louder’ until we give them our time.
Thank you! If you'd ever like to have someone talking about creativity on your podcast from the perspective of creativity science, I would love to chat!
