We are sometimes led to believe from our heroes that their greatest creations come from somewhere beyond their understanding. Like an arrival or a magic bolt from the heavens. Without denying them their truth if you dig deeper most of them have curated a pathway that is meticulously cleared for the muse to reach them. That is where their 10,000 hours were spent. Being open, thinking (or intentionally not thinking), pushing out the doubt, actively spending time to develop tools to improve the conduit to creativity. Cultivating creativity is one of the gifts that makes us uniquely human.
