It’s a hard question to answer in totality, however a large part of my inspiration comes from the creative output of others. image: https://24go.ai/hubfs/9d915a_14881dfe64854d539c650f0ea7f8d2edmv2.webp --- [![24GO\_Logo\_WhiteOrange\_15pct\_side\_border](https://24go.ai/hubfs/24GO_Logo_WhiteOrange_15pct_side_border.png)](https://24go.ai/) - [AGENTS](https://24go.ai/agents) - [AGENTS TO ATTRACT](https://24go.ai/agents#attract) - [AGENTS TO CONVERT](https://24go.ai/agents#convert) - [AGENTS TO SELL](https://24go.ai/agents#sell) - [AGENTS TO SERVE](https://24go.ai/agents#serve) - [AGENTS TO GROW](https://24go.ai/agents#grow) - [AGENTS TO OPERATE](https://24go.ai/agents#operate) - [CASE STUDIES](https://24go.ai/work) - [RESOURCES](https://24go.ai/resources) - [INSIGHTS](https://24go.ai/insights) - [CONFIGURATOR](https://24go.ai/configurators) - [PLATFORMS](https://24go.ai/platforms) - [HUBSPOT](https://24go.ai/platforms#hubspot) - [TRAFFIC QUEST](https://24go.ai/platforms#traffic-quest) - [MONDAY.COM](https://24go.ai/platforms#VIDEO) - [SHOPIFY](https://24go.ai/platforms#VIDEO) - [SALESFORCE](https://24go.ai/platforms#VIDEO) - [LINKEDIN](https://24go.ai/platforms#VIDEO) - [META](https://24go.ai/platforms#VIDEO) - [GOOGLE](https://24go.ai/platforms#VIDEO) - [INDUSTRIES](https://24go.ai/about) - [FINTECH & FINANCIAL SERVICES](https://24go.ai/about#industries) - [SAAS & TECHNOLOGY](https://24go.ai/about#industries) - [PROFESSIONAL SERVICES](https://24go.ai/about#industries) - [ALLIED HEALTH](https://24go.ai/about#industries) - [REAL ESTATE & PROPERTY](https://24go.ai/about#industries) - [ECOMMERCE & DTC](https://24go.ai/about#industries) - [EDUCATION & COACHING](https://24go.ai/about#industries) - [B2B BUSINESSES](https://24go.ai/about#industries) - [STARTUPS & SCALEUPS](https://24go.ai/about#industries) - [BOOK A DEMO](https://24go.ai/#contact) # Top 5s ***May 15, 2017*** ![9d915a\_14881dfe64854d539c650f0ea7f8d2edmv2](https://24go.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/9d915a_14881dfe64854d539c650f0ea7f8d2edmv2.webp?width=708&height=398&name=9d915a_14881dfe64854d539c650f0ea7f8d2edmv2.webp)   I’ve been asked to write an article on what inspires my creative output. It’s a hard question to answer in totality, however a large part of my inspiration comes from the creative output of others. I’m currently re-reading (for at least the third time) Nick Hornby’s High Fidelity and inspired by the book’s lists of “Top 5s” I thought, for my own point of reference for the article, I’d write my own. Over the past few weeks, I’ve written, remembered, re-written, revisited, discussed over drinks and then re-written again my favorites. Feel free to call me out on any of those put forward, I’m sure I’ve missed one and over-stated the importance of another. In order one to five here we go…. Books: 1.
