A fantastic book on the creative life.
âThe Creative Act: A Way of Beingâ by Rick Rubin. An incredible book on the creative life. If you have been making art for a while, you may know or have felt much of what is presented. Rubin lays things out with such beautiful clarity that this will be a deep well to draw from over and over again. This book should be mandatory reading for anybody in the creative field. A mix of philosophy, psychology, cognitive science, self-help, and the spiritual, Rubin explores 78 areas of thought that every creative act touches upon. While not everything will resonate, an abundance of ideas will cause every artist to think about how and why we create. It is much more comprehensive than âThe Art Spirtâ or âArt and Fear,â and undoubtedly, this book will take its place among them.

Insightful!
An insightful and interesting way of perceiving art and its relationship with the universe. I’ve now realized that art isn’t about just creating for the sake of the finished result, it’s about discovering your inner self and going with the flow of where the universe takes you. My art has now improved just by reading this!

Will lead you on a spiritual Journey
This book will make you look at the creation of art in a completely different way. Art is more than what you see it really is the ability to access this sort of other worldly state. Those who resonate with your art, it’s because they have been able to access that as well. The closer you able to sort of become this sort of infinite point in space and time the more raw art feels because your true essence and form is able to break through. This book lead me down a rabbit hole of finding out who or what I really am. My art has become more real, more raw, and more lively because of it. Really can’t recommend it enough, it’s probably not for everyone, but can at least be appreciated by those curious of the mind of Rick Rubin and many other like minded people.

An Open Mind, Guys.
I’m a lifelong musician, composer, creative, performer, etc. This book has always been recommended to me by colleagues, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I agree with many of the common points that came up in the majority of reviews, and I’ll discuss them here:1. Perfect Coffee Table Book: Yes, this is a wonderful application. It’s an easy book to pick up, put down, and resume later. The chapters are short and are packed full of simple, quiet advice that you can consider and ponder throughout your day.2. It’s “the book”: This one depends where you are on your creative journey. I believe that I will read this book again, probably several times, in the future. There is a ton of excellent advise and wisdom in there, and reading through it quickly causes a lot of information to be passed over. It should be digested and internalized slowly. Most of the wisdom was old information that I’ve heard from teachers, colleagues, friends, or through personal musical discovery and experience. However, it’s invaluable to have these shared experiences collected in one place. If you are just starting out on your creative journey or don’t currently consider yourself a creative person, I expect that you’ll actually learn a lot from this book.3. The prose meanders. Yes, it does. I think you could largely read the chapters out of order and it wouldn’t matter. That’s okay – as Rick writes, language is an imperfect filter. Much of what he shares is a different viewpoint or expression of the same idea, so one chapter may be passed over while another may unlock something important in you. The whole book works together to instill growth, confidence, and creative openness – the colorful prose is a necessary feature.This is a book about growth that instills growth. It’s going to take time to marinate and be useful to your creative process. I will say that reading Rick’s knowledge has helped me find ways to streamline my personal writing process, trust the art, and better navigate roadblocks like doubt and lost direction. I’ve rated it four stars for its nature – it is not a solution, but a tool. A reference. I’ll use this book when I’m stuck in my creating. Maybe it will help, maybe it won’t, but something in it will help move the creative flow eventually.It’s also necessary to address several popular reviews that mention, and in some cases fixate, on religion. This is not a sacred text or religious doctrine. It is a way of structuring your life and workflow to increase and invite creative moments and creative energy to help you achieve your goals and be more creative. I can’t speak for Rick, but if you’re viewing everything he writes through a strict religious lens, you’re missing the entire point. It is frequently emphasized how important it is to have, nurture, and cultivate an open mind. To see and experience the world though many lenses and experiences. To explore diversity, open thought, and the self. To listen, observe, and connect with the world around us. Practicing these methods is necessary for encouraging creaticity. Reading this book through an extraordinarily narrow lens may help a little, but the majority of the contents will be misconstrued. There are a couple key chapters about that. 😉

I actually listened the the Audio book first before purchasing and loved it so much to decide to purchase a hard copy. So easy to listen/read and relate too. Highly recommend it if you are someone who is seeking some answers about life and what one’s purpose is.

Llego en buenas condiciones. Añado que tenÃa un detalle poco notorio pero visible si se examina minuciosamente. En cuanto al diseño, es bastante bueno, es de para dura con acabado en tela de color gris y logotipo negro plastificado. Es tanto minimalista como elegante. Un muy buen libro en cuanto esté tétrica y en cuánto a lectura. Es muy fácil de leer y digerir. No está demás decir que contiene mensajes bastante abstractos y se requieren conocimientos previos acerca de cómo funciona el cerebro a nivel subconsciente. También serÃa bueno leerlo con conocimiento previo en neurologÃa y transduccion. En general es excelente y contiene un mensaje muy profundo e inspirador.
