What does it take to be creative? It's common to hear people say "I'm not the creative type", yet our brains are designed to come up with ideas all the time. Coming up with ideas is easy but converting those ideas into reality is a lot more difficult! In this episode, Pete discusses why it is productivity, not creativity, which is essential for living the inspired life and provides simple tools to being more productive.   Pete describes creativity as 'the art of seeing something' and explains how once you can see something, it then exists in a 'thought world'.
