Episode description

Hello, listeners, members and subscribers! Our eighteenth Moonshots Master episode has arrived with a creative flavour.


Creative thinking is the process of generating new and original ideas or concepts. It involves imagination and curiosity to develop novel solutions to problems or challenges. Creative thinking can be applied to many fields, including business, art, science, and more.


There are several key characteristics of creative thinking:

  1. It involves going beyond the obvious and finding new perspectives.
  2. It requires an open and flexible mindset.
  3. It involves generating many ideas and then refining and selecting the best ones.
  4. It involves making connections between seemingly unrelated ideas or concepts.
  5. It involves taking risks and being willing to try new things.


In this master series, we start with John Cleese and Elizabeth Gilbert, who reminds us that creativity is a lifestyle we can adopt.


We then into some specific breakdowns to better understand creativity and flow with Steven Kotler and Michael Bingay-Stainer.


Youtuber Valorian and Elizabeth Gilbert round out the investigation with practical suggestions on being creative and original.
