• 人人皆是艺术家：创造力不是少数人的特权，而是人类与生俱来的本能与生活方式。
• 连接宇宙与自然：创作的本质是让自己成为一个敏锐的接收器，捕捉并翻译周围世界的信号。
• 过程重于结果：全神贯注于眼前的创作过程，放下对作品最终商业表现或外界评价的执念。
• 培养敏锐的觉察：通过保持好奇心、冥想和细致的观察，来拓宽自己感知世界的通道。

• “创作的艺术，就是一种生活的艺术。”
• “我们不是为了创作而活，我们是为了生活而创作。”
• “如果你心中有了一个好主意，把它实现出来。如果你不做，宇宙会把这个主意交给别人。”
• “焦虑和怀疑是创作的一部分。接纳它们，然后继续前行。”

• 打造神圣空间：减少外界干扰，为自己每天的思考和创作留出纯净的时间。
• 打破常规习惯：走不同的路，听不同风格的音乐，用全新的视角看待习以为常的事物。
• 允许不完美存在：在创作初期关掉“评判脑”，尽情捕捉灵感，后期再进行筛选和打磨。

From the legendary music producer, a master at helping people connect with the wellsprings of their creativity, comes a beautifully crafted book many years in the making that offers that same deep wisdom to all of us

"A gorgeous and inspiring work of art on creation, creativity, the work of the artist. It will gladden the hearts of writers and artists everywhere, and get them working again with a new sense of meaning and direction. A stunning accomplishment.”—Anne Lamott

“I set out to write a book about what to do to make a great work of art. Instead, it revealed itself to be a book on how to be.”—Rick Rubin

Many famed music producers are known for a particular sound that has its day. Rick Rubin is known for something else: creating a space where artists of all different genres and traditions can home in on who they really are and what they really offer. He has made a practice of helping people transcend their self-imposed expectations in order to reconnect with a state of innocence from which the surprising becomes inevitable. Over the years, as he has thought deeply about where creativity comes from and where it doesn’t, he has learned that being an artist isn’t about your specific output, it’s about your relationship to the world. Creativity has a place in everyone’s life, and everyone can make that place larger. In fact, there are few more important responsibilities.

The Creative Act is a beautiful and generous course of study that illuminates the path of the artist as a road we all can follow. It distills the wisdom gleaned from a lifetime’s work into a luminous reading experience that puts the power to create moments—and lifetimes—of exhilaration and transcendence within closer reach for all of us.
