Presented Sept 11 at the Conexus Emerging leaders conference. We literally created a song for a video about a painting. It worked, it really worked!

1. just try it!(cheat codes on how to differentiate)

4. “you can fit in or
standout but
you can’t do
both.”
-seth godin

6. “all the creativity books in the
world aren’t going to help
you if you aren’t willing to
have lousy, lame,
and dangerously
bad ideas.”
-seth Godin

8. creativity is taking two things
that don’t belong together
and putting them together.

9. like a cactus balloon!

14. anyone can learn to differentiate,
just like practicing a sport, or
playing a video game!!

15. stop looking for a formula
start creating something!

17. this is a song
about a painting
in a video on a
website

18. if you don’t feel dumb every day
you probably aren’t
doing much.

19. “the biggest thing about
collaborating is completely
removing your ego.”
-kendrick lamar

20. create history

21. if

22. you never beat a video
game on the
first try

the creative class

30. everyone is born creative.
everyone is given a box of
crayons in kindergarden.

it!
