The 5 P's of Creativity

I have no idea who the author of this is, and attempts by the person I received it from to find the author, have also failed. Should these be your comments, email me and I will be happy to give you the credit. (I found the image online, it wasn't part of the 5 P's)

I thought this was such a great set of P's, I had to share it with you all. Enjoy...

The 5 P's for creative people

1. Passion. Love what you do; have enthusiasm and excitement for every part of the process. Equalize the unpleasant by giving it the same attention as the pleasant.

2. Play. Be open to approaching the usual, customary, or repetitive tasks you face in a new way. Kids do this with ease: just watch them use an empty cardboard box.

3. Practice. It is important to master your craft through repetition. Once you've done something many times, you'll have the confidence to do it well every time you do it.

4. Patience. Trust yourself to go through a series of tasks in the amount of time each task requires. Sometimes, it is better to finish well than to finish fast.

5. Perseverance. Don't stop when you hit a bump in the road. Commit to finding a way to solve a problem in your own timeframe, and don't abandon it entirely.
