Where Creativity Thrives

Creativity can't be taught. Creativity is the mix of hard work and good stimulants. Here is 36 min. of goodness from John Cleese on how to create the perfect conditions for creativity to appear.

Gangnam Style - how to make a hit I have stumbled upon Psy and his Gangnam Style two month ago and I was very entertained by the good beat and kitschy video. But it seems like there is more to "Gangnam Style" than just being a South Korean summer hit. Psy has taken the world by storm, got a lot of attention from the international media, got an American record deal and taught Britney Spears the moves.

Change is not a Resolution Happy New Year is almost behind us. The celebration of the New Year seems like a profound hope that everything can be changed and done differently. 1/1 is like a the chance for the new begining, hence the New Year's resolutions, new plans, crowds in gyms.... The glimpse of hope for the brand new "me" & "life" and then we come back to where we were on 31/12 and if lucky and mostly determined and ready for a hard work, you will keep on evolving from there and making the change happen. So don't make promises you can't keep, start working.
