As I read Awuah's Tweets and watched his interviews, I noticed how he took bigger and bigger swings until he was openly criticizing institutions and figures whereas before he was more of a quiet creator.]]> 2023-02-16 01:34:00 UTC https://padlet.com/spk3e/z1tkuqjml7gpmmp4/wish/2484319994 Motivation spk3e https://padlet.com/spk3e/z1tkuqjml7gpmmp4/wish/2484323502 Awuah was motivated to return to Africa after the birth of his son. As noted by Sternberg, creativity can be fueled be rewards that a creative person self-conditions to respond to. In this case, I postulate that Patrick Awuah may have been motivated by creating a better system for his own child. ]]> 2023-02-16 01:37:56 UTC https://padlet.com/spk3e/z1tkuqjml7gpmmp4/wish/2484323502 Creative People Strive to be Different spk3e https://padlet.com/spk3e/z1tkuqjml7gpmmp4/wish/2484326194 Creating a Liberal Arts College in Kenya was unheard of, but Awuah wanted a DIFFERENT experience. This reminded me of the interview with Slack, where they set out to create a different video game...they wanted to be different and failure didn't scare them. ]]> 2023-02-16 01:40:46 UTC https://padlet.com/spk3e/z1tkuqjml7gpmmp4/wish/2484326194
