The Research Behind UBCreative2

This isn't random inspirational content.

Dimension 1: Creative Confidence

3 modules including Inspire-U-2-B-Creative, B-Confident, and Believe

Dimension 2: Divergent Thinking

4 modules on imagination, imaginative thinking, possibilitizing, and thinking

Dimension 3: Innovation

3 modules on innovation, invention, and originality

Dimension 4: Artistic Expression

3 modules on artistic expression, self-expression, and valuing beauty

Dimension 5: Problem Finding

3 modules on questioning, curiosity, and perspective

Dimension 6: Experimentation

3 modules on experimentation, risk-taking, and playfulness

Dimension 7: Flow States

Dimension 9: Creative Habits

"Creativity is not a talent. It is a way of operating... Creativity is not an ability that you either have or do not have. It is, for example, and this is the fascinating thing about it, absolutely unrelated to IQ."
— John Cleese

How People Might Use UBCreative2

The following are hypothetical examples illustrating potential use cases. These are not testimonials from actual users but scenarios showing how UBCreative2 could be applied:

Hypothetical Example

The Morning Creative Ritual

Elena might print the full 38-card deck and keep it in her art studio. Each morning before painting, she could shuffle through the cards, select one module that resonates with where she is creatively, flip to the back, and choose one quote to carry throughout her creative session. She might write in the margins about how that quote connects to her current project.

Hypothetical Example

The Creative Block Breakthrough

Marcus, a writer experiencing creative block, might go directly to the "Divergent Thinking" and "Experimentation" dimensions. He could work through those 7 modules over a week, drawing multiple quotes each day and using them as writing prompts. The diverse perspectives—from ancient philosophers to contemporary artists—might help break through his mental barriers.

Hypothetical Example

The Team Innovation Session

A design team might each purchase their own personalized collections. At weekly brainstorming sessions, they could each draw a card and share how the quote on the back applies to their current project challenge. The different modules and quotes spark unexpected connections and breakthrough ideas.

Hypothetical Example

The 9-Week Creative Development Program

Sophia might work through Csikszentmihalyi's creativity dimensions systematically. She could focus on one dimension per week—starting with "Creative Confidence" in Week 1, moving through all nine dimensions. By Week 9, she would have developed practices around each dimension, building a comprehensive creative toolkit.

Hypothetical Example

The Portable Inspiration

David, a musician, might print just a few key modules—"Inspire-U-2-B-Original," "Inspire-U-2-Experiment," and "Inspire-U-2-Focus"—and keep them in his instrument case. Before practice sessions or performances, he reads through a few quotes to shift his mindset from technical execution to creative expression.

Hypothetical Example

The Flow State Practice

Maya might focus specifically on the "Flow States" and "Intrinsic Motivation" dimensions. Using Csikszentmihalyi's research as a guide, she could work with these 6 modules to understand and cultivate the conditions that help her enter flow more reliably in her photography work.

Note: These examples illustrate possible applications. Your experience will depend on which format you prefer (cards vs. book), your creative discipline, and how you integrate the practice into your creative life.

The Creative's Journey: A Proven Approach

While there are many ways to use UBCreative2, one particularly effective approach mirrors how master creators have developed their craft throughout history: systematic practice with deliberate focus.

Csikszentmihalyi's research on creative individuals revealed common patterns: they develop habits that support creativity, they cultivate intrinsic motivation, and they create conditions for flow states to emerge. UBCreative2's structure supports this approach.

The 9-Week Creative Development Program

  1. Week 1 - Creative Confidence: Build belief in your creative capacity
  2. Week 2 - Divergent Thinking: Expand your ability to generate ideas
  3. Week 3 - Innovation: Learn to see old things in new ways
  4. Week 4 - Artistic Expression: Connect with your unique creative voice
  5. Week 5 - Problem Finding: Develop curiosity and questioning
  6. Week 6 - Experimentation: Embrace risk and playful exploration
  7. Week 7 - Flow States: Create conditions for deep creative work
  8. Week 8 - Intrinsic Motivation: Strengthen internal creative drive
  9. Week 9 - Creative Habits: Build sustainable creative practices
"Creativity is a central source of meaning in our lives... Most of the things that are interesting, important, and human are the results of creativity... When we are involved in creativity, we feel that we are living more fully than during the rest of life."
— Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
The Point: Creative development is a journey, not a destination. Whether you use the 9-week program or develop your own approach, the principle holds: regular engagement with carefully selected wisdom, combined with reflection and application, enhances creative capacity. UBCreative2 gives you the curated wisdom; you choose how to apply it to your unique creative path.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly do I receive when I purchase?
Two PDF files delivered instantly via download: (1) Card Deck PDF with all 38 cards formatted for printing, and (2) Ebook PDF with the same content in flowing book format. Both files are personalized with your full name on every card and page.
How does the personalization work?
When you purchase, you'll provide your full name (first and last). We generate your personalized PDFs within 24-48 hours and send you the download links. Your name appears in the footer of every card, on the ebook cover, dedication page, and throughout both documents—making this truly YOUR collection.
I'm not an "artist." Is this product for me?
Absolutely! Creativity isn't just for artists—it's essential for entrepreneurs solving business problems, parents finding engaging ways to connect with kids, professionals innovating in their fields, and anyone navigating life's challenges with fresh thinking. Csikszentmihalyi's research shows creativity is a way of operating that applies to any domain of life.
Can I print these on a regular printer?
Yes! The PDFs are designed for standard A4 paper on any home or office printer. We recommend duplex (double-sided) printing for cards so front and back are on the same sheet. Use heavier paper (100-120gsm) if you want more durable cards, or standard 80gsm office paper works fine for notes and repeated printing.
Do I need to print the entire deck at once?
Not at all. Many users print just the intro cards plus the specific modules they're working with. You can print individual pages, specific dimensions, or the full deck—whatever serves your practice. Since you own the PDFs forever, you can print and reprint whatever you need, whenever you need it.
What's the difference between the card deck and the ebook?
Same wisdom content, different formats. The card deck formats each module as a physical 2-page card with front/back design—perfect for shuffling, drawing randomly, writing notes on, and carrying specific cards with you. The ebook formats everything as a flowing book with cover, dedication, foreword, clickable table of contents, and bonus sections—perfect for reading on devices or printing as a bound book. Both are included with your purchase.
What are the "six wisdom traditions" included?
Each module draws quotes from: (1) Universal/Eclectic wisdom (philosophers, poets, thinkers across time), (2) Positive Psychology (contemporary research-backed insights), (3) Stoic philosophy (Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, Epictetus), (4) Christian scripture and mystics, (5) Buddhist/Mindfulness teachings (Buddha, Thich Nhat Hanh), and (6) other global traditions (Rumi, Confucius, Lao Tzu, etc.). This diversity ensures multiple perspectives on each creative theme.
Is this based on real research?
Yes. The structural framework comes from Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi's decades of creativity research (including interviews with 91 exceptionally creative individuals) and Teresa Amabile's Componential Theory of Creativity from Harvard Business School. The 28 modules map directly to evidence-based creativity dimensions. The quotes themselves are authentic wisdom from history's greatest creative minds—selected not randomly but specifically to illuminate each research-backed principle. See our scientific foundation page for full details.
How long does it take to work through all 28 modules?
Entirely up to you. Some users might spend a week with each module (28 weeks = about 7 months). Others use the 9-week program, focusing on one creativity dimension per week. Still others dip in as needed, using specific modules when facing creative challenges or seeking inspiration. There's no required pace—the collection adapts to your creative rhythm.
What if I want more quotes beyond the 12-15 per module?
The InspireWell4Life website (www.inspirewell4life.com) provides access to 100+ quotes per module—the complete database from which these 12-15 were curated. The website, QuoteKeeper app, and QuietPages journaling tool are all free resources mentioned in the ebook's Resources section. The curated cards give you focused daily practice; the website gives you unlimited exploration.
Are there other products in the InspireWell4Life collection?
Yes! UBCreative2 is one of 36 products in our Aspirational Series—each focused on cultivating specific virtues, capabilities, and ways of being (You Be In The Zone, You Be Mindful, You Be Flourishing, etc.). We also have a Life Wisdom Series with 20 Navigate products for situational guidance. All use the same format: personalized cards + ebook, research-based frameworks, diverse wisdom traditions. The ebook includes a complete list in the "Explore Collections" section.
