Overview
Creative Boot Camp is a 30-day creative training program that
will increase the quantity and quality of your ideas. The book
begins by exploring what creativity is and isn't, how we can train
ourselves to improve our own ideation, and what steps we need to
take to generate more ideas and better ideas for our creative
selves, our creative projects, our creative businesses, and our
creative lives.
Like any muscle, creativity requires repetitive and challenging
exercise to grow. The 30-day program provides an escalation of
creative exercises that test our problem-solving prowess and train
us to overcome the obstacles that inhibit ideation. The program
tests regularly, both in idea quantity and quality, to ensure we
are on track with our boot camp goals. But unlike the gym, these
exercises aren't to be dreaded. They are light, fun, and take 10-15
minutes max. By the end of the 30-day boot camp, readers will see
noticeable improvement in the quantity and quality of their
ideas.
