Abstract
Creators in the arts, sciences, education, and business speak about how they create in terms that I have broken down into the Seven I’s: several types of (1) Inspiration, (2) Imagery, (3) Imagination, (4) Intuition, (5) Insight, (6) Incubation, and (7) Improvisation. I have developed exercises for each of these so that my students can themselves teach them in their classes and practice them in their lives. Inspiration has many types and forms, and so I will devote a whole chapter to the “I” of Inspiration.
