101 Creative Notes – Yoris Sebastian


Sebastian, Yoris. 2013. 101 Creative Notes. Jakarta: PT Gramedia Pustaka Utama.

101 Creative Notes
Why I read it in the first place?
Well, it is a self-help book, so I did buy and read it in hoping to enrich myself with inspirational material. Once in a while, I like to urge myself to read non-fiction books. Actually, there was this time in my life when I kind of avoided reading fiction (what??? It’s true though). At that time, I was in a campus press in my uni, where I was demanded to know lots of facts and variety of information. And I obtained some of them in my objects of reading which were mostly non-fiction. Anyway, I was interested enough to buy 101 Creative Notes because of its simple and light writing style. I am not into a slow-pace and very-detailed self-help books. Before I read this book, I have no idea who Yoris Sebastian is. Clearly, I didn’t buy this book because of his popularity (which I was not aware of, but I guess he’s pretty popular, maybe?), I was purely interested with its theme about creativity.

101 Creative Notes

Kenapa saya baca buku ini?

Ini kan buku yang tujuannya untuk pengembangan diri, jadi memang saya beli dan baca buku ini karena mau memperkaya diri sendiri saja dengan bahan bacaan inspiratif. Sekali-sekali saya memang suka baca buku non-fiksi. Eh, malah sebenarnya ada masa di mana saya benar-benar membatasi membaca buku fiksi. Waktu itu masih aktif di pers mahasiswa, secara enggak langsung saya dituntut untuk banyak tahu tentang fakta dan ragam informasi, yang sebagian saya dapatnya dari buku-buku non-fiksi. 101 Creative Notes ini saya pilih karena saya lihat format penulisannya yang ringan dan singkat. Karena pada dasarnya saya kurang suka juga sama buku self-help yang bertele-tele. Tapi, saya enggak tahu siapa tuh Yoris Sebastian sebelum baca buku ini. Jadi bukan karena dia (yang sepertinya orang hebat yah?) saya beli buku ini, memang cuma tertarik saja dengan tema bukunya.
