The Creative Brain

Max and Kelley discuss the importance of creativity and how it affects your brain when you do or try something new. They also discuss some of the scientific findings and a podcast by Dr. David Eagleman called The Inner Cosmos.  Max also talks about different problem-solving approaches, such as the SWOT analysis, Business War Games, and Brain Storming and Brain Writing. We also discuss how important it is to seek out new adventures and skills and how your brain lights up like fireworks on the Fourth of July when it is challenged by something new.

If you want to do a deeper dive, you can look at Rick Ruben's book The Creative Act, which is more than just a book about creativity; it's a manifesto for embracing the boundless potential within ourselves. Here's a link to the book on Amazon, if you're interested in learning more.
