HEGARTY

HEGARTY ON CREATIVITY

Part of our reading week tasks, we were assigned to complete a reading of a short book, 'Hegarty On Creativity' written by John Hegarty.

It may sound strenuous to read a entire book during our reading week but I made my way thoroughly through the book within a few hours. I admit, I struggle to fully engage with some recommended reading materials but, this book was completely different.

I found it to be a learning experience rather than only reading to give a review.
I found it to be inspiring and once finished I felt creative, no really.

One of chapters which stood out to me and I found relatable were pages, 104-105. FAILURE.
This section was the most inspiring as failure is one of the life virtues which I worry of. By reading and re-reading this section I somewhat feel at ease with the possibility of failure and being comfortable and accepting the reason for it.

'Recommended' reading has no longer become a chore. Hegarty is worth a read if you're feeling uninspired or need the 'push'.
