Here's 100 years of creativity advice in 30 seconds. First, steal like an artist. That's Austin Kleon. The best ideas aren't always born. They're often borrowed, reworked, and made your own. Second, there's the famous pottery class experiment. One group aimed for perfection. The other just made as many pots as possible. And what happened? The second group got better. Why? Because in many cases, quantity leads to quality. And third, Steve Jobs once said, creativity is just connecting things. The more ideas you collect, the more powerful your work becomes. Creativity isn't magic. It's connection, repetition, and courage.
