✏️ My blog post
Let’s talk about creativity and the best conditions to train it. Artists are often considered rules breakers and free spirits. However, I believe rules, boundaries and even obstacles and limitations are creativity boosters → link
💭 Food for Thought
Yes, only one link this week because there are so many high-quality links inside this Must Read, Pure Gold YCombinator’s post!
YCombinator’s Essential Startup Advices (by Geoff Ralston and Michael Siebel) → link
🔧 Some useful tools
Youtube, Instagram, Snapchat, video tutorials… it seems that the digital age is all about images, but you must remember that in this digital age copywriting is still a killer skill. We can all learn a lot from the 35 “straight to the point” writing tips from Helen Nesterenko. → link
🚴 Personal Training
“Habit creation” is quite a controversial topic these days. This art (or is it a science?) lies behind the digital addictions generated by Facebook, Twitter, etc. But being able to create habits is also a necessary skill for entrepreneurs looking to improve their focus and productivity.
B.J. Fogg (Stanford University) is a master in this specific field. You too can become a master in habit creation with B.J.’s free 5-day training program. → link
🎁
Today, my gift is “Crucify your mind”, an oooold song from 70s folksinger Sixto Rodriguez.
Entrepreneurs, like artists, are creators and risk takers. That’s why you can learn from Sixto’s life and the way he dealt with erratic success watching the documentary “Searching for Sugar Man”.
Enjoy!
