Quotes by Chris Lumry  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“There will always be more that can be done to improve, perform, refine, produce. A final, satisfying point of “arrival” or “making it” does not exist. Finding our value in what we create may seem appealing and can even be motivating for the short term. But it all too easily becomes an endless hamster wheel of proving ourselves and believing that the next “level” of creativity is what will bring the security and significance we seek. Instead, what people actually need is a new starting posture.”
Chris Lumry, Creativity Unlocked: An Inside-Out Approach to a Life of Joy and Purpose

“Your creative outflows do not define, determine, or justify your value or significance; they simply reveal that it’s already there!”

“[The creativity] process is about
trial and layer, not trial and error.”
