    About this ebook

    'Journey to My Heart' is my collection of poems written during the course 'Creativity and Leadership' I took in the fall quarter of 2010 at Stanford University. This course taught the tools of creativity and encouraged the students to practice each one in the form of live-withs, one every week. I shared my experiences with each of the tools in the form of poems.

    I hope you would enjoy reading these poems and would be able to tap into your creative resource even more effectively. I also hope that you would embark and successfully complete the journey to your heart based on the tools I discuss in my poems. I would love to have your comments and hear about your experiences.

    I wish your creative fountain overflows in this world.

      Dedicated to

      Asha

      my mother,

      Who erased all the answers in my notebook dictated by the teachers at school

      And made me rewrite them on my own

      And

      Ajay

      my soulmate,

      Who makes every day poetic for me

      And whose gentle, angelic sleeping face every morning

      makes me blink twice when I wake up,

      To ensure I am out of my reverie

      Acknowledgement

      I would like to express my profound gratitude to Professor Michael Ray and Professor Rochelle Myers for writing a life-changing book, 'Creativity in Business' on which the course at Stanford University was based, which I took in Fall, 2010. I am also deeply indebted to Professor Hal Louchheim and Professor Julie Daley for teaching this course.

      Many thanks to Vinayak Garg who designed the cover page and to Dr. Asha Gauri Shankar, the photographer.

      I would like to thank my alma mater St. Xavier's School, Shri Ram College of Commerce
