If you aren’t familiar with Tedx Talks<\/a>, I highly recommend looking to Ted as an alternative to a TV show or searching out memes on Facebook when you need a break in your day. These talks are down-to-earth, very accessible presentations created to stimulate conversation and get you thinking. The talks can inspire you to look at your world and what you do in some very different ways.<\/p>\n

There is a whole series of talks about creativity within the Tedx listings but I am partial to this one by Amy Tan<\/a> about where creativity hides. It’s quite funny following her line of reasoning and exploring where creativity might come from as well as how to be open to serendipitous inspiration.<\/p>\n
