"Creativity is not just an epiphany, a moment of "ah-ha" or "eureka." It is a continuous process, beginning even before the conscious birth of an idea. Besides generating the new idea, we must shepherd it from a mental construct into a tangible entity, something that exists in reality. For some this is enough. But if we feel a drive to produce something useful to others, we might engineer the idea into an innovation, be it a product or a service. And if we are particularly committed, creativity continues as we entrepreneurially deliver our innovation to those in need at a price they can afford. All these are steps that constitute our creative process. Such processes collectively become a revolution when a critical mass embraces an extended commitment to creativity, feeding off the flow of innovation, building cultural momentum as each becomes inspired to create at a rate and with a novelty that could otherwise not be done alone."
