"Respecting our biologically programmed need for play can transform work. It can bring back excitement and newness to our job. Play helps us deal with difficulties, provides a sense of expansiveness, promotes mastery of our craft, and is an essential part of the creative process. In the long run, work does not work without play."
--Dr. Stuart Brown, Founder of
the National Institute for Play
“There is no such thing as creative and non-creative people, only people who use their creativity and people who don’t.”
Dr. Brené Brown
