Mastering the 39 Keys to Creativity

MacLeod provides us with a comprehensive guide to unlocking our creative potential through the 39 keys to creativity. These keys cover a wide range of themes and approaches that can help us tap into our innate creativity and unleash our full artistic potential.

This key encourages us to find ways to make our work financially viable while staying true to our artistic vision.
• "Avoid crowds": MacLeod advises against seeking validation from the masses. Instead, he encourages us to find our niche, our tribe, or our true fans who truly appreciate and value our unique creative expression.
• "Sing in your own voice": It's easy to get caught up in imitating others or trying to fit into existing molds. MacLeod urges us to embrace our uniqueness and create art that reflects our true selves. By singing in our own voice, we stand out from the crowd and make a lasting impact.

These are just a few examples of the powerful keys covered in the book. Each key is a valuable tool that can help you navigate the challenges and obstacles that often come with the creative process.

When Hugh MacLeod was a struggling young copywriter, living in a YMCA, he started to doodle on the backs of business cards while sitting at a bar.

MacLeod has opinions on everything from marketing to the meaning of life, but one of his main subjects is creativity. How do new ideas emerge in a cynical, risk-averse world? Where does inspiration come from? What does it take to make a living as a creative person?

Now his first book, Ignore Everyone, expands on his sharpest insights, wittiest cartoons, and most useful advice. A sample:

* Selling out is harder than it looks. Diluting your product to make it more commercial will just make people like it less.
* If your plan depends on you suddenly being "discovered" by some big shot, your plan will probably fail. Nobody suddenly discovers anything. Things are made slowly and in pain.
* Don't try to stand out from the crowd; avoid crowds altogether. There's no point trying to do the same thing as 250,000 other young hopefuls, waiting for a miracle. All existing business models are wrong. Find a new one.
* The idea doesn't have to be big. It just has to be yours. The sovereignty you have over your work will inspire far more people than the actual content ever will.

After learning MacLeod's 40 keys to creativity, you will be ready to unlock your own brilliance and unleash it on the world.
