Dream Today: What You Can Achieve Tomorrow

I'M JUST NOT THAT CREATIVE The man who said that scored 93 out of 100 on the creativity test inside this book - the highest score ever recorded. His name is Dick Smith: entrepreneur, aviator, the man who once towed an iceberg into Sydney Harbour. If he can be wrong about creativity, so can you - because almost everything we believe about it is wrong. Creative people are not born. Breakthroughs do not arrive as lightning. Talent is not the ticket, and neither is IQ - the author, by his own cheerful admission, was never in the top classes at school. What separates the people who achieve their dreams from the people who file them under someday is a set of ten learnable habits - and the science is now clear that the habits come first. Practise them, and the creativity follows. It has no choice: that is how the brain is wired. Drawing on a lifetime in aviation - where clear thinking is literally a matter of life and death - Ron Bartsch dismantles the myths, shows you the machinery, and hands you the ten habits, one test, and one deceptively simple sentence to steer by. Take the test. Learn the habits. Then watch what happens to the word impossible . AUTHOR: Prof Ron Bartsch AM is an aviation lawyer, pilot and university lecturer, the former Head of Safety of Qantas Airways, and the author of twelve books, including The Corona Dilemma. He is about average, he insists - which is rather the point.
