		<description><![CDATA[I used to do long-distance running and whenever I hit a wall, I would think of Haruki Murakami quoting Guatama Buddha on the difference between inevitable and optional: &#8216;Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional. &#8216;Say you’re running and you start to think, Man this hurts, I can’t take it anymore. The hurt part is an [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Consider a page of writing.  Black marks on white paper. The marks are full of meaning &#8212; for the person who wrote them and for the person who reads them. Between this meaning, between the words and between the letters, is space. The words always get much more of our attention but both words and space are necessary to meaning. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Giving is at the heart of the creative approach. You give something of yourself &#8211; sometimes for payment, often not. Sometimes knowing exactly why, often not. This blog post is my once-a-year callout, where you get the opportunity to intentionally give &#8212; by supporting a vulnerable person who, because of famine or war or genocide [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When you set out to live or work in a more creative way, people worry. We like to do that. Find a newspaper from a few years ago and see how few of those apparently important and urgent anxieties actually came to pass. How even if they did, other conditions arose, rendering the outcomes unimaginably [...]]]></description>

And one of the loudest and most convincing of them will be you. [...]]]></description>

You never see further than your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way.’ This is true of any act of conscious creation.

		<description><![CDATA[You&#8217;re always succeeding at creating something. The question is: what? When people talk about becoming more creative, what they really mean is more consciously creative &#8212; better at creating more of what they want and less of what they don&#8217;t.
