Praise for Creative Superpowers A book that made my brain fizz makes idea - photo 1

Praise for Creative Superpowers

A book that made my brain fizz makes idea creation seem achievable for all of us.

Bruce Daisley, VP EMEA, Twitter

We tend to think of creativity as an innate trait, a quality imbued by nature, beyond our control. In reality, creativity is a learned skill a set of processes and habits we can cultivate, rehearse and improve at. Think of it like language: our brains are hardwired for it, but it takes years of practice and immersion before it flows seamlessly through us. This book is your primer for that language, a workbook full of lessons in creativity. And whether youve been speaking it your whole life or youre just wading in, the lessons are invaluable.

Dear Reader,

The book you are holding came about in a rather different way to most others. It was funded directly by readers through a new website: Unbound. Unbound is the creation of three writers. We started the company because we believed there had to be a better deal for both writers and readers. On the Unbound website, authors share the ideas for the books they want to write directly with readers. If enough of you support the book by pledging for it in advance, we produce a beautifully bound special subscribers edition and distribute a regular edition and ebook wherever books are sold, in shops and online.

This new way of publishing is actually a very old idea (Samuel Johnson funded his dictionary this way). Were just using the internet to build each writer a network of patrons. At the back of this book, youll find the names of all the people who made it happen.

Publishing in this way means readers are no longer just passive consumers of the books they buy, and authors are free to write the books they really want. They get a much fairer return too half the profits their books generate, rather than a tiny percentage of the cover price.

If youre not yet a subscriber, we hope that youll want to join our publishing revolution and have your name listed in one of our books in the future. To get you started, here is a 5 discount on your first pledge. Just visit unbound.com , make your pledge and type super5 in the promo code box when you check out.

Thank you for your support,

Introduction by Daniele Fiandaca,
Co-founder of Utopia & Creative Social

INTRODUCTION

Sometimes it feels like every week theres a new emerging technology. Its hard to keep up. Are you feeling a little overwhelmed by all these changes? Is your business agile enough to compete against the new start-ups entering your industry every day? Are you finding it increasingly difficult to connect to your audiences, who constantly stampede from platform to platform? Are you finding it harder to recruit talent who are no longer interested in your business, but instead are magnetised towards businesses with a clear purpose? Are you constantly trying to work out whats next?

These might be some of the things that keep you awake at night. Or the big one: are you worried you might go to work one day to find youve become irrelevant?

Youve been replaced. By a robot.

If youve picked up this book, then chances are at least a few of these things are on your mind (unless, of course, you are Elon Musk, in which case youre too busy saving the planet to open this book). As technology continues to open up the world to even more possibilities, it is increasingly hard to keep up.

The good news? Our brains are wired to rewire they can be moulded based on conditioning and behaviour. Its why the hippocampus, the part of the brain that controls conversion from short-term to long-term memory and spatial navigation, is bigger for a London taxi driver than a London bus driver. While a bus driver drives the same route day after day, a taxi driver has to pull new routes from his or her long-term memory every day. It is this process of reconnecting that stroke victims go through during recovery.
