Chapter One

      do you/did you/are you/would you?!

       How creative do you think you are? To get some (probably surprising) idea of your own creativity, consider the following questions, and ask yourself:

       1. Do you daydream? YES/NO

       2. Do you plan menus and cook meals for yourself, your family or friends? YES/NO

       3. Do you mix and match colours, fabrics and accessories when buying clothes to create your own unique style? YES/NO

       4. Do you like many different kinds of music? YES/NO

       5. Do you remember with pleasure, highlights of your life, including special times spent with friends, great sporting moments, outstanding holidays, any significant ‘disasters’ or triumphs in your life? YES/NO

       6. Did you ask lots of questions when you were a child? YES/NO

       7. Do you still ask lots of questions? YES/NO

       8. Do you sometimes wonder at the complexity or beauty of things, and wish you could figure out how it works/was made/came about/came into your life? YES/NO

       9. Do you have sexual fantasies? YES/NO

      10. Do you have newspapers, magazines or books in your home that you have promised yourself you would read, but for which you have not yet managed to find the time? YES/NO

      11. Are there other things in your life you have promised yourself you would do or accomplish, to which you have not yet got around? YES/NO

      12. Are you moved or excited by superlative performances in the fields of music, sports, acting or the arts? YES/NO

      13. Would you say ‘yes’, if I could wave a magic wand and suddenly:

       make you a fit, flexible and superb dancer, able to ‘wow ’em’ at any dance function? YES/NO

       gave you a voice equal to your favourite
