Dreams are a fantastic resource for creativity. Whether you are a writer, an artist, a musician, a sculptor or a scientist. Throughout history, our dreaming life has provided the spark of genius that has helped humankind to progress up the evolutionary ladder. Dreams have produced awe-inspiring paintings such as those by William Blake and Salvado Dali, great works of fiction from writers such as Graham Greene, Stephen King and Enid Blyton, popular music such as that written by John Lennon and Billy Joel, and been responsible for life-changing scientific break-throughs such as those from Kekule (benzene structure) and Mendeleyev (Periodic Table) The lists are endless.
The famous people who have used their dreams in this way, were/are no different to you and me. We all have a natural talent for creating unique work just like them. Believe it. Believe in yourself.
