Creative solutions are required because the status quo is never good enough, and our goal should always be to push beyond the limits of what seems possible. Great ideas are needed to solve all the problems we face and to enrich our lives. With the tools presented in the following chapters, we will learn how to take on the challenges, big and small, that come our way, and to see that every word, every idea, and every moment provides an opportunity for creativity that will enhance our lives. The first half of the book focuses on the inside out--what you can personally do to increase your own creative aptitude and attitude. The second half deals with the outside in--how you can change the local and cultural environment to increase the creativity quotient of your community.--From publisher description ER -
