★★ The Creative Habit, by Twyla Tharp

Creativity, like many other business concepts, is an elusive idea, even for those who are creative. What works for some may not work for others. You cannot teach people to be creative, but you can provide ideas for creative people to improve themselves and be more productive.

In that sense, Tharp's book provides some useful insights into activities and behaviors that can produce ideas and reduce dead time. However, it is surrounded by a lot of fluffy stories that turn this book into more of an auto-biography than a self-help book. Which would have okay, if the author was something other than a Broadway choreographer. I suppose it is a worth a quick browse, but nothing more than that.
