Letting Go of Your Inner Censor to Encourage Creativity

Letting Go of Your Inner Censor to Encourage Creativity

I'm just watching this great TED Talk with Tim Brown on creativity.  He's the CEO of Innovation and Design at IDEO and has some amazing information to share about creativity, mescaline, prototyping toys, preschool, the loss of playful thinking that happens through formal education.  It's got me buzzing! 

He's at the 2008 Serious Play conference.  He Tim Brown talks about the powerful relationship between creative thinking and play.

He says that we can be serious AND playful in our adult lives.  What do we need to do that?  Trust to play, and trust to be creative.  We need exploration, building and thinking with our hands, and role-play.  (These are just the end notes…  See the whole video to really get what he's communicating.)
