As someone passionate about creativity I've spent much time exploring the subject and many authors' ideas. E. Paul Torrance was acclaimed as one of the main experts. One day I came by this piece. I got impressed by it, printed it and pasted it on my work table. Whenever I was kind of upset, reading it and dreaming it's absolutely true used to energize me.
I don't any more work at the same office, but I have since had in mind I should recover this piece and have it always at hand. I believe in it nowadays more than ever before and today is the day I recover it for this blog.
E. Paul Torrance MANIFESTO FOR CHILDREN
Don't be afraid to fall in love with something and pursue it with intensity.
Know, understand, take pride in, practice, develop, exploit
and enjoy your greatest strengths.
Learn to free yourself from the expectations of others and to walk away from the games they impose on you.
Free yourself to play your own game.
Find a great teacher or mentor who will help you.
Learn the skills of interdependence.
Don't waste energy trying to be well rounded.
Enjoy yourself,
