Steal Like an Artist: 10 Things Nobody Told You About Being Creative - Austin Kleon

“Steal Like An Artist is an actually readable manifesto on how to properly squeeze your brain-juices and unlock your potential.” -Thrillist

Steal Like an Artist is a manifesto for the digital age filled with positive messages, graphics, and illustrations that reminds you to enter and ignite your artistic side, wherever you are. Austin Kleon reminds you that creativity is everywhere and it’s for everyone. You don’t need to be a genius, you just need to be yourself. This is a short and breezy read that reminds you to steal and grab creativity from everywhere. So next time you’re strolling the streets or on your next adventure, make sure to explore your creativity and you’ll be amazed with what you can create.

Unlock your creativity.

  1. Steal like an artist.
  2. Don’t wait until you know who you are to get started.
  3. Write the book you want to read.
  4. Use your hands.
  5. Side projects and hobbies are important.
  6. The secret: do good work and share it with people.
  7. Geography is no longer our master.
  8. Be nice. (The world is a small town.)
  9. Be boring. (It’s the only way to get work done.)
  10. Creativity is subtraction.

The best time to go to the Algarve is in the summertime - this is when the sun and weather is the most beaming.
