Creative People: How could your life Change in a Minute?

I have to write a collection of pieces that center around one topic for my creative writing course. I've decided to do it on things that could make your life change in an instant. So, what are some things that could happen to a person instantly and completely change their life? Also if you have any ideas of different styles of writing (for example poems, stories, etc..) that I could do them in I would really appreciate it.Creative People: How could your life Change in a Minute?

Since you specify %26quot;creative people%26quot;, we'll dispense with the more obvious life-changing events such as the death or illness of someone close ( or yourself ), winning a random event like a lottery, gaining or losing a large sum of money through no special effort of yours ( like the stock market ).



For a creative person, the sudden life-changing events are concerned with that creativity: a sudden acceptance or rejection of a creative product that either validates or puts into question your actual creativity; a break-through or obstacle ( like seeing through a writer's block or having one appear ) or, best of all, entry into a %26quot;zone%26quot; of creativity where time passes without notice and things appear without seeming effort.Creative People: How could your life Change in a Minute?
Suddenly realizing that you want to do something you've never considered before in your life, and absolutely knowing that you can do it.
