Written response to Karim Rashid’s Creative Manifesto. Extra credit

The point that speaks to me the most is:
-  Normal is not good
I think this speaks to me because being normal is boring.  Everything is normal to me is usually boring because nothing new is happening; therefore, nothing exciting is happening.  I think Karim Rashi's artwork is definitely is influenced by his way of thinking.  I mean what artist isn't inspired or motivated by the way he thinks.  I always take my values into what I do artistically.

My manifesto:

- To each his own.
- The only truth is that everything is a lie.
- Don't dwell in the past, live in the present, hope for the future.
- Don't compare your life to others.  There is no better or no worse compared to other people.  It is only  different.
- A fool says I know. A genius says I wonder.
-Don't blame others because then only they can fix the problem.  By blaming others you put the problem on them; therefore, only they can solve that problem.  The problem is yours no one else can solve it.
- Don't be afraid to do something because no one else did it.
- Change happens whether you are ready or not.
- Don't think outside the box, but think why there is a box at all.
- Nothing is truly done.
