How I did it: I took classes from internationally renowned teachers.  One through a large annual Canadian stitching conference.  I chose teachers who emphasize creativity in their approach to stitchwork.  I attended a Gary Clarke (Australia) class and a Margaret Beal (Great Britain) class.  Well worth the money!

Lessons & tips: Be flexible about how your goal can be met.  What is it you really want from your goal?  Mine was to stimulate my creativity.

Resources: I connected up with my local stitching guild to access information about these classes, and became a member to take them.
