Creativity isn’t a gift reserved for a chosen few: It is a habit that can be trained, cultivated and strengthened every day. That is the premise guiding ‘Hábitos creadores’ (Creative Habits), the new book by Cristian Ballesteros, a work that dismantles myths and offers a lucid, practical vision of how to turn inspiration into consistent practice.
Drawing from the lives of six exceptional figures: Einstein, Michael Jordan, Walt Disney, Van Gogh, J.K. Rowling, and Steve Jobs- the author uncovers the patterns behind talent and shows that genius is not a matter of chance, but of method. Each of these names, now synonymous with brilliance, endured failures, doubts, and moments of darkness. Yet they all shared the same attitude: the discipline to return to their purpose again and again.
Ballesteros goes beyond anecdotes and easy motivational messages. His experience in sports journalism and later work in digital content creation have taught him that creativity thrives when curiosity meets consistency. Through concrete examples and applicable techniques, he demonstrates how small daily habits – from how we organize our time to how we handle frustration – can transform any creative process.
This book doesn’t promise magic solutions, but rather a roadmap for those who wish to understand how greatness is built. ‘Hábitos creadores’ invites readers to stop waiting for the perfect moment and start creating from the imperfection of the present. Because true talent doesn’t lie in having brilliant ideas but in having the courage and perseverance to bring them to life.
An inspiring and practical read for anyone seeking to unlock their potential and discover that, behind every genius, there is always a sustaining habit.
