Get ready to get inspired
In short and engaging entries, this deceptively simple volume presents examples of creative thinkers from the worlds of writing, music, architecture, painting, technology, and more, shedding light on their process, and showing how each of us can learn from them to improve our lives and our work. Subjects range from the grueling practice schedule of the Beatles and the relentless revisions of Tolkien, Sondheim, and Picasso to the surprisingly slapdash creation of The Simpsons. You'll learn about the most successful class in history (in which every student won a Nobel Prize), how frozen peas were invented, why J.K. Rowling likes to write in cafes, and how 95 percent of Apocalypse Now ended up on the cutting-room floor. Takeaways include: - Doubt everything all the time.- Plan to have more accidents.
- Be mature enough to be childish.
- Contradict yourself more often.
- Be practically useless.
- If it ain't broke, break it.
- Surprise yourself.
- Look forward to disappointment.
- Be as incompetent as possible.

Indestructible??
Set name: DinoBone 2-Pack XL, Set name: DinoBone 2-Pack XL
I am giving this product 1 star but it really deserves 0 stars.
Their definition of indestructible is different than mine, my pit bull had the ends of this toy chewed off and splintered in 2 days, I'm praying that I don't have to take her to the vet because she might have swallowed some of the material that it's made with. I believe that this is a dangerous product for a dog.
I will be sending them back including the one that she chewed.

I don't really like buying these super hard plastic toys for my dog, but he's such an aggressive chewer that most toys are like throwing away our money. If he doesn't destroy it it's because he doesn't like it. But these last a while. He's had one of these for almost a month now. It has chew marks, and he chewed a couple of small pieces off, but it's mostly fine. He likes it when I spread peanut butter between the ribs. The only other downside (besides feeding my dog plastic) is that it hurts worse than Lego to step on it when you're barefoot.

My dog really loves this. She has been chewing on it since it first arrived and it still hasn’t been chewed up. This toy is truly indestructible.
