Scott Barry Kaufman Quotes

• Genius involves figuring out who you are, and owning yourself. It’s about amplifying your best traits and compensating for the rest. Geniuses grab life by the horns, and persevere amidst setbacks. They take control of their lives, instead of waiting for others to open up doors. In this very important sense, greatness is completely, utterly, made.

• It's actually hard for creative people to know themselves because the creative self is more complex than the non-creative self. The things that stand out the most are the paradoxes of the creative self ... Imaginative people have messier minds.

• No estoy hablando de rebeldía, sino de dar a la gente tiempo para la reflexión interna constructiva e incluso para soñar despierto. Muchas investigaciones sugieren que cuanto más se exige la atención externa de las personas, menos posibilidades hay de que entren en el modo por defecto en el que se producen las ensoñaciones y la reflexión, y muchas de las grandes ideas no van a surgir de la fuerza bruta del trabajo, sino de la experiencia personal. Vagar por la mente parece ser esencial para el proceso creativo, y no creo que muchas empresas sean conscientes de ello.
