Steal Like an Artist is a self-help book written by writer and artist Austin Kleon that offers tips on how to become more creative and productive in today's world. The book is based on the assumption that nothing is original and that all artists, writers and creative people are influenced by those who came before them. So the key to creativity is not to try to be completely original, but to "steal" from others and use those influences to create something new.
The book is divided into ten chapters, each offering different ideas and tips on how to become more creative. In the first chapter, Steal Like an Artist, Cleon introduces the idea that everything is a remix and encourages readers to embrace the idea of borrowing from others. He argues that the best way to create something new is to take what already exists and give it your own meaning.
In the second chapter, "Don't Wait to Know Who You Are to Get Started," Cleon emphasizes the importance of taking action and starting, even if you're not quite sure what you're doing. He believes that it is better to start small and build up your skills and knowledge over time than to wait for some inspiration or perfect idea.
The third chapter, "Write the Book You Want to Read," encourages readers to create the kind of work they would like to consume themselves. Cleon stresses the importance of creating for yourself first and then worrying about pleasing others.
Chapter 4, "Use Your Hands," discusses the importance of moving away from screens and using your hands to create. Kleon believes that working with your hands can help you think more deeply and creatively.
In chapter 5, Side Projects and Hobbies Are Important, Kleon emphasizes the importance of doing side projects and hobbies to sustain your creativity. He claims that working on something unrelated to your main project can often be a source of new insights and insights.
The sixth chapter, "The Secret: Do Good Work and Share It With People," encourages readers to focus on doing good work and sharing it with others. Cleon believes that the more you share your work, the more likely it is to be noticed and appreciated.
In Chapter 7, Geography Is No Longer Our Master, Cleon discusses the benefits of living in a connected world and the ability to work from anywhere. He encourages readers to take advantage of this and connect with others online.
Chapter 8, "Be Nice (The World Is a Small Town)" emphasizes the importance of being kind and respectful to others. Kleon believes that a good attitude can go a long way in building relationships and creating opportunities.
The ninth chapter, "Be Boring (It's the Only Way to Get the Job Done)" encourages readers to set a daily routine and stick to it. Kleon believes that creating a routine can help creative people enter a state of flow and become more productive.
The final chapter, "Creativity is Subtraction," argues that the key to creating something great is often to take away, not to add. Kleon believes that eliminating distractions and focusing on the essentials can lead to more efficient and effective work.
Overall, Steal Like an Artist is a thought-provoking book that encourages readers to take a fresh look at creativity and productivity. Emphasizing the importance of drawing inspiration from others, taking on side projects, and being kind and respectful to others, Cleon offers a unique perspective on how to succeed in today's world. Whether you're an artist, a writer, or just want to be more creative in your daily life, Steal Like an Artist offers valuable insights and tips that can help you reach your goals.
