Synopsis "Create. Share. Repeat.: An Answer to the Question, Why Bother? (in English)"
You're a creative person. If you weren't, you wouldn't be reading this book. As a creative person you use your creative impulses, desires, and instincts to improve your life, the life of your family, and the lives of the people and organizations in your community. You're a change agent. You make things happen. Being creative is great - it makes life more interesting. Being creative helps you be successful in your career and can pay well in business, education, and other fields that are constantly changing. Being creative enables you to meet stimulating people as you pursue your creative project. Being creative helps you be a better person. Creativity is fun but being creative all the time can be tiring. It takes discipline. It takes persistence. It takes time away from other things. It requires physical and mental energy to be creative throughout your life. Sometimes you might hear a little voice ask, "Why bother?" You might start to wonder why you should bother being creative doing things like writing short stories, painting, preparing a delicious meal, starting a company, writing software, preparing an awesome presentation, or organizing community and family events. Why not just lie down and take a nap instead? I get it. While I wrote this book, I experienced every obstacle I describe here as I took this creative project to the finish line. Someone once said that writing a book will change the author more than any reader. I hope so. When I'm feeling discouraged I want this book to inspire me to continue with my creative projects and I hope it will inspire you too. No matter your age or situation, you have a lot to offer. You are unique. Share your work with the world. It's the creative journey that changes you, not reaching the destination. Enjoy the journey. Create. Share. Repeat.
