How to find your authentic creative voice

[YIDIRYIDIR]

For all my multi-talented friends, this is for you.

instead of "think outside the box"  consider this : 

"think inside so many boxes to a point where you create your own box where only you can create"

this aligns with how creativity works and how humans who are able to be authentic create. this is how you you copy your way into originality.

The way I think of it is I'm creating an artwork in such and such artform, this keeps it grounded.  So thinking would be tied to an artwork.  What artform does that thinking fit?  Is it a brainstorm, a plan, a contemplation?  And then to consciously create, e.g., a great brainstorm as an artwork.

I'm talking about the context of any creative endeavour that requires either expressive creativity or creativity as problem-solving, or both. like writing, content, painting, music, podcast, filmmaking, business....

Yes.  My model fits all of that.  First you identify the artform that you want to create in.  It could be anything.  And then the focus is on what artwork can I create in this artform?  It could be cooking.  That's the artform.  And your creation of an artwork would be a dish that you create.
