The book of doing and being: rediscovering creativity in life, love, and work

With clarity, humor, and insight, award-winning filmmaker Barnet Bain guides readers to unlock the raw power of the creative self. Shar-ing creativity principles and practices at the leading edge, The Book of Doing and Being offers a life-altering map for stepping beyond what we already know and into a dimension of imagination from which innova-tion is born. Known for his inspiring movies and documentaries, as well as his pop-ular creativity workshops, Barnet Bain makes available his teachings for the first time in book form. Discover how will and action come to-gether with imagination and feeling to form the very foundation of cre-ativity by working with this treasury of more than forty transformative exercises. Each one is designed to spark new creative connections by challenging our usual ways of thinking, feeling, and perceiving. Step by step, you will make the discovery of a lifetime: how to stop be-ing ruled by your past and start consciously creating your present and future. You will be surprised and energized—by your next creative im-pulse, the next idea that excites you, the next experience that moves you—and you will live a creative life.
