As part of my reading week activity list we were given a book to read entitled 'Hegarty On Creativity; There Are No Rules'. When we were initially given the task of reading a book, I had sooo many doubts before I had even read the first page. Me, being me, the best procrastinator you'll ever meet, decided that doing this task last would be best, as I thought it would probably be the most boring but how wrong was I?! I downloaded this book to the kindle app on my laptop as I didn't think it would arrive in time but after completing it on here, i've decided to buy a hard copy to keep with my collection as I found it so inspiring and something I can just pick up and have a flick through whenever i'm feeling slightly demotivated.
"You will be different. You won't be one of the crowd. You won't be one of the flock."
I found this such an inspirational quote, I believe that far too often I spend my life worrying about how other people will perceive me and whether i'll be judged by the work I produce. I've grown up constantly worrying about standing out from the crowd, however, since being at University i've found that I have to stand out or else where will I end up in life? I have talents and I should be proud of my hard work!
If you're feeling a lack of inspiration and creativity then I would highly recommend buying this book, its an extremely light read and full of illustrations and quotes that will help to spur you along and make you realise that everyone has been in the same boat as you at some point
