I also don't know what I am really good even though I know that everyone has something that they are good at. After reading this chapter, I feel that I have interpersonal and naturalist intelligence. I feel that I am a very generous person and I love animals a great deal. I guess these are forms of creativity.
I think it's amazing how the artists in this chapter delve into their work whole-heartedly. It seems like they let nothing get in their way, even love and sex. It makes me truly believe the notion that you can have anything that you want in life if you put your whole heart and mind into it.
It was also interesting how the book said that the desire to please one's parent is a major factor in an artist's motivation. I never thought about that before but it's definitely very true indeed. We all want to please our parents in some way. What better way than to better yourself in something that you already are talented in. What a great chapter!
