Because of that video I was 45 minutes late for work -- but I just told them I was being creative...
...and I couldn't finish marking a bunch projects by my graphic design students...but most of them approach their work in closed mode, anyway.

Oh no - not Cleese again! Or is this a older video?
Apart from his excursions into rather tacky advertising (introduced by himself as being necessary because of recent divorce costs - the one after Connie Booth, I think) he has worked in many series of pocket philosophy management films since 1969. Never with any substantial or original content.
This "creativity" nonsense is just a popularisation of other peoples' rather more thoughtful insight and theories and Cleese is just continuing his acting career.
For insight into artistic creativity, I would prefer to hear Terry Gilliam. His contributions to Monty Python age much better than the rest of it.
some people can only create with a lot of pressure and under a severe time constraint..and with all hell breaking loose all around
And now for something completely different.
Great video! I wasn't sure what to expect from John Cleese, but it made perfect sense and reflected my own issues with getting creative.
