Reflections on creativity (article worth reading)

Last month I highlighted an article after RootsTech, and I think this might become a regular feature on the blog to share an "article worth reading". This one is titled The Creativity Hack No One Told You About: Read the Obits by Keith Sawyer (in the MIT Press Reader). This isn't news to family historians, or those of us seeking family connections by researching DNA matches.

This conclusion caught my attention: "In every person's life story, there's always a narrative, always a deeper principle at work...Seek that deeper principle, ask 'why?', and look for distant connections with your own life."
