Create vs. Copy: Embrace Change. Ignite Creativity. Break Through with Imagination by Ken Wytsma

Create vs Copy had some great lines and really great ideas, but as most nonfiction books, seemed about 50 pages too long. It seemed to be a bit repetitive towards the end. Overall, a fast read worth a lazy afternoon of your time.

Copy received through NetGalley

I’m not a huge fan of self-help books, but this one was suggested to me by a nice woman from Claire Diaz-Ortiz’s publicity team who e-mailed me regarding that review. She invited me to read it on NetGalley. It sounded nice. The synopsis does sound really nice. So I went for it.

I wasn’t swooped into the text, as other SH books have managed to do. However, it is well written, it offers interesting theories and Mr. Ken Wytsma clearly knows what he’s doing. But I didn’t find it ‘fun’, considering it is very theoretic, and very theological.

To me, the theology part makes it an okay read. However, I am giving it four stars, in case I change my mind in the near future, when I’ll be re-reading it. The fear of ‘too young to understand’ got to me while writing this review.

I firmly believe we are born with God-given gifts. To use these gifts to the best of our ability is our daily act of worship. Ken Wytsma dives into this thought, encouraging others to use their creativity. We all have it. The world is better when we use it. So I guess we'd better.

This wasn't the best book on creativity and work that I've ever read, but it wasn't the worst. It was solidly average, with a few snippets of new, quotable, helpful tidbits, but mostly just more of the same, I thought. I wasn't blown away, but found it to be a fun and easy little lunch break read.
