It is a very frustrating thing to be the face of a creative project and yet essentially have zero creative control over that project. Essentially, you're a pawn in the system.

The creative process is a process of surrender, not control.

The creative part of your brain needs to be stimulated. Sometimes you get blocked in the thing you do, because there's so much pressure to do it.

The reason I dislike talking about the creative process is that I do have a creative process that is a winner and it's a sure thing.

Sometimes you have to stop thinking. Sometimes you shut down completely. I think that's true in any creative field.

I need to find a way of retaining creative control.

I don't want to use my creative energy on somebody else's user interface.

You may stifle your creativity by learning too much about processes that should be spontaneous and automatic.

When you have a creative mind it doesn't stop going.

Creativity is merely a plus name for regular activity. Any activity becomes creative when the doer cares about doing it right, or better.
