The Art of Accidentally Finding Inspiration
We are diving into the enchanting world of artistry and creativity, exploring a concept that has often been a silent yet powerful partner in the creative process – serendipity. It’s that magical moment when the unexpected aligns perfectly with your artistic vision, leading to unparalleled inspiration and innovation. My wife gave me a box of cards for the holidays in 2022. I was puzzled because they were creativity cards and I thought, what the heck is this, I don’t need them. Well, folks, I was wrong and I will attempt to do a card a week and record an episode about how I am utilizing the card I draw every week if you decide to pick up a deck and do these let me know.

- Enlist others to cultivate habits that can lead to serendipitous discoveries. Gather together and pool your observations.
- Identify a recent blunder, mistake, or stumble you or your colleagues recently made. Before you clean it up, take a few minutes to study it. What might be gleaned from the experience?
