“A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others.” ~Ayn Rand
The quote above was in my email reminder to journal today. It is a great quote. However, the motivation is not only a desire to achieve. With the process of creating comes inner peace and calm. Fulfillment and joy follow closely behind.
