Creative Breakthroughs
Manage episode 382309860 series 3526444
Finally, the gang are all back together. Dorien, Ping and Sarah are all here this week and they’re talking about creative breakthroughs. They share their thoughts on what a creative breakthrough actually is, tips and tricks you can try to achieve one, why they are important and, interestingly, how sometimes they are not what they appear to be.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The ladies talk about what a creative breakthrough actually is and how they can sometimes appear small but actually be big.
- Do breakthroughs find you or do you find them? And are you more likely to get one if you’re not actively looking for it? The ladies discuss.
- Ping discusses how she has found that if she simplifies her work then she is more likely to achieve a breakthrough.
- The ladies discuss the idea that having a dramatic change in working practices can often lead to a breakthrough.
BEST MOMENTS
“A breakthrough isn’t just winning an award or getting a big advance, sometimes it can just be a small discovery you make on your own.”
“If you force yourself to find a breakthrough, you might end up losing sight of why you were looking for one in the first place.”
“If you do what you’ve always done, you’ll get what you’ve always got. Don’t be afraid to change directions, you never know where it will lead you.”
