Lessons in Creativity

Stories and Strategies to Cultivate Your Creative Confidence

About this book

How do our everyday choices infuse our lives with purpose? What happens to the things we create, and how do they impact others? How does innovation influence our lives, our communities and the spaces we share?

Lessons in Creativity is a powerful exploration of what it means to be creative, offering readers a blend of personal stories, unexpected insights and inspirational takeaways. Australian designer Ben Rennie takes readers on a journey from working with world-leading brands, including Chanel, Luxottica and Gore-Tex, to the everyday moments that shape the imagination. In this book, you'll follow Ben as he explores the tangible, personal power of creative confidence.

We often underestimate the potential of our own creativity, believing it belongs to artists, writers or performers. But creativity is inherently human — it's about showing up with generosity and curiosity. Whether you're an accountant, a politician, a full-time parent or an engineer, creativity brings exciting thinking and purpose to life.

As the foundation of our work, relationships and lives, creativity brings meaning and fulfilment to everything we do. Lessons in Creativity reaffirms our role as the architect of our destiny, with the ability to form new habits, craft fresh stories and unlock unseen horizons. It reveals a philosophy for aligning your daily actions with your deepest aspirations and values, using your creative confidence as the engine for transformation.

The creative journey is a winding road marked by persistence and self-awareness. Creativity is not something we have or we don't; we learn and develop it through practice. In adopting this mindset, we open ourselves to a world of possibility, where each decision brings us closer to realising a potential. In this sense, creative problem-solving is not a gift but a skill.

If you're feeling stuck or disconnected, Lessons in Creativity will inspire you to show up, take that first step and re-engage your creative potential.
