In today's conversation Judith Germain is speaking to Mark Shekter about how to unlock creative potential. Mark shares the story of how he initially planned to become a lawyer like his family, but ultimately found his true passion in music, comedy, and television writing. He describes the pivotal moments that led him to leave law school and pursue a creative career, despite the skepticism of those around him.
Key Takeaways- Tap into your innate purpose and what you're meant to do to unlock creativity
- Creativity is about fully executing ideas, not just having ideas
- Leaders need to make space for strategic thinking and creativity
- Creativity flourishes when you honor your true calling, even if it means taking risks
In this conversation Mark and Judith discover they share a philosophical alignment around the importance of independent, maverick thinking and risk-taking to pursue one's true calling, rather than following a pre-determined path. They discuss how this mindset has shaped their respective careers and creative pursuits.
