Great post on Creativity...

Over at Zen Habits, they had a post with some good ideas about creativity...

http://zenhabits.net/2009/08/the-little-but-really-useful-guide-to-creativity/

Isn't it "cheating" to use someone else's creative output?
Creativity is not always about your own ideas as much as it is about recognizing the great ideas of others ... and adding your own ideas to make theirs even better !

Think Synergy vs. Scarcity !

The Zen Habits post also started with an interesting quote...
“The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources.” - Albert Einstein
Not sure I agree with Albert on this ... but I like the idea of having sources ... and leveraging them as much as you can !

What are your sources for creativity? When was the last time you recognized someone else's good idea ... and gave it a boost?
