The Drive to Explore & Create

by David Edelman

We’re in the process of selecting a pre-school for our daughter. In all likelihood, the school we pick will be her home – unless some unresolvable problem arises. At the top of my criteria: the school will nurture her drive to explore and create.

My drive was smothered in high school. It took three-and-a-half years of Ivy league tuition to get it back. How many people survive school with a confident push to discover and create?

As we look for entrepreneurial spirits to join Diabetes Daily, I’m struck by how few have the spark. We are all born with the creative drive, but something stomps it out.

I am guarding and growing my daughter’s creative spark fiercely.
