Mastering The Human Journey | William Whitecloud

#245  William Whitecloud discussed how creativity and genius is the result of self-reflection and not having to rely on external influences. He used the example of Jimmy Hendrix, a renowned guitarist who created music that sounded like nothing heard before and was not copied from anyone else. He stated that the more self-referential one is, the closer they are to achieving genius, which will also lead to success in any field. William also mentioned his book, Secrets of Natural Success, which further demonstrated this point. The conversation was about creativity and how it can be used to achieve success in life. William talked about how creativity is not the same thing as an IQ genius and how it is more of a self-referential type of genius. He is helping people become more creative in themselves so they can be more successful in their lives. By using creativity as a mode of operation, one is able to derive their own sense of reality and connect dots that have not been connected before. People need to formulate their own vision from their inner sense of vision, have a sense of orientation, and then connect the dots effectively. Creativity is accessible to everyone, not just those in creative professions. About William: William Whitecloud is a creative development trainer, and his job is to teach people how to be creative.

He said that at the level of imitation, you are copying and learning from outside of you, whereas at higher levels of creativity, you become more self-referenced.
