Creativity and innovation are all around us - if we know how to notice it and use it. Be inspired by the ingenuity of Jerry Seinfeld, as well as, the 3M company’s strategy that has given them their greatest products for the past 70 years. You’ll even hear about the ultimate in creative genius: Mother Nature.
This show will teach you the time management skills you need to be joyful, productive, & fulfilled in all areas of life. I believe that if we want a fulfilling life, we have to identify all the hats we wear, then dedicate our lives to turning each role into a beautiful work of art.
