CREATIVITY: Open your Mind

Everyone loves a creative result. It could be a structure, mobile phone, exotic car, clothes, art, painting etc. And achieving creativity sometimes looks tedious. Creativity means simplicity. To simplify your ideas and communicate easily. Creativity does not start with a solution. It starts with a problem. Creativity is not a search for something someone else thought of - it's not a guessing game. Do all these brain-teasers we come across really have something to do with creativity? I doubt it. Then whats creativity?

Creativity is a search that does not have a predefined result. In most cases, creativity is expecting the unexpected.

So, the question is: How can we tease our brain to practice and improve our creativity?

If we would like to be more creative, imaginative, and innovative, we need to practice. Just like you can't get in shape just by talking about it. You need to do something about it - actively.

We all know the phrase "open your mind." Well, I believe opening our mind calls for open-ended games. Close-ended riddles are just not the right tool for practicing creativity in its deepest and broadest meaning.

Creativity promote discussion and joint insights as opposed to competition. But above all, when you open your mind you should know: anything can happen. And some of it will!

I therefore, urge you to be creative in your words, actions and in-actions. You will rise again!
