I have a "create on demand" profession. There are 30 people looking at me at a specific time each day, waiting for insight, clarity, and brilliance. This book discusses habits to help make sure your creative well does not run dry.

It's amazing how Todd Henry can inspire me so much through this book and his podcasts. As a product manager I'm required to think creatively most of the time and this book has guided me tremendously. Keep it up!
