When you improvise, anything becomes possible [Article]

John-Paul Flintoff clarifies in the School of Life:

 an improviser doesn't sit waiting for the perfect moment to arrive. An improviser takes whatever is available, and makes the best use of it. Where others may see only unpromising materials and situations, an improviser sees abundant possibilities. 

But those possibilities can only be realised if we train ourselves to accept what we have been given, and to tap into our natural creativity.
