Quote
People who set aside a special time and place in their lives for creative thinking and work--for instance, waking up with the sunrise each morning to write in the quiet of the early hours or meditating before a painting session--also tend to score higher on measures of creative potential. In contrast, those who are more motivated to develop a final product tend to score lower in creative potential and intrinsic motivation and higher in stress and extrinsic (reward0-driven) motivation. Those who derive enjoyment from the act of creativity and feel in control of their creative process tend to show greater creativity than those who are focused exclusively on the outcome of their work.
