The Beginning

Welcome to the Revolution of Creativity.

I've heard a thousand times the age-old phrase, "We learn best from our mistakes." We learn what not to do, and refine our process of thinking, of acting, to meet the same challenge head-on with a different approach. Before we become forward thinkers, we can look back at our nation's successes, our world's advancements. Every positive change has been achieved by one creative thought at a time, and the battle these thinkers fought before it became a reality. 

Many self-help enthusiasts repeat the concept of the Law of Attraction. If you want something badly enough, you'll find yourself working towards that goal, and that much closer to obtaining it. If you want something, you will have it. I want the world to change. I don't want my name on a headline, but I will work to have one more person smile as they walk to work, finally excited to go to a job that is changing to meet the needs of the future. I will work to see a family share a laugh with new neighbors in a village that is returning to a close-knit community the likes of which we haven't seen in fifty years. 

I've never written before about what I want. We shy from it as a culture. We can point at those that have too much, and those that have too little. We don't realize that with creativity, teamwork, and good nature we can seize what we want while simultaneously benefiting everyone around us.

This blog is about our potential as one race to reign in our creativity. It is to work together on a better future in production, representation, and analysis of the workplace, society, and culture. I want to make this blog a focal point for this channeled creativity. Send me your ideas, your inventions, every dream and innovation. Send me complaints about your job, send me the questions that keep you up at night. Send me the stories of your unique solution to an everyday problem, send me the whispers that you know could change the world.

This is the place of the open mind, the outside of the box. This is the place of the better future.
