Think like an artist - Will Gompertz
What’s in it
The book advocates we all think more - well - like an artist! In other words more like an entrepreneur, freeer, more critical.
It tells us that we should have the courage to create and tell the world about it. To not be beige and mediocre. To break out of our straight jacket and show the world what we can do. No matter how scary that is. No matter that we don't know how people will react to what we've created.
It advocates that creativity should be what businesses should encourage. And what schools should aspire to.
Why I like it
A book with a title like that was always going to appeal to me! So, with a cup of tea and a biscuit nearby I read this in less than 3 hours.
Lots of snippets of creativity and lessons on ‘how artists do it’. What’s not to like?
