Most people aren't anywhere near to realizing their creative potential, in part because they're laboring in environments that impede intrinsic motivation.

Track your small wins to motivate big accomplishments.

The best way to help people to maximize their creative potential is to allow them to do something they love.

True creativity is impossible without some measure of passion.

Creativity depends on a number of things: experience, including knowledge and technical skills; talent; an ability to think in new ways; and the capacity to push through uncreative dry spells.

Creativity takes a hit when people in a work group compete instead of collaborate.

The desire to do something because you find it deeply satisfying and personally challenging inspires the highest levels of creativity, whether it's in the arts, sciences, or business.

If the challenge is far beyond their skill level, they tend to get frustrated; if it's far below their skill level, they tend to get bored. Leaders need to strike the right balance.

People are most creative when they care about their work and they're stretching their skills.

People will be most creative when they feel motivated primarily by the interest, enjoyment, satisfaction and challenge of the work itself.

To be creative, an idea must also be appropriate—useful and actionable.
