Getting Creative – 7 Tips




Be Creative

Creativity is obscured by the conscious mind.

Creativity needs to be nurtured in a conducive environment. Here are the conditions that stimulate the flow of creative juice:

1. Positive emotions and mental attitude: Be happy and be self-assured. A positive mindset promotes imagination and creativity.

2. Self-confidence: People with creativity are those who firmly believe in their capabilities to get things done.

3. Accept criticism: Most creative people welcome constructive criticism. They will learn from the comments of others to make progress and improvement.

4. About success: Success is not wealth, power, reputation, or attachment to material things. It is the satisfaction of a job well done. When you do what is important and useful to others and you are happy about it, you have achieved success. Creativity is one such thing that gives you a sense of success.

5. Allocate time to be creative: When you are too busy and working under stress there is no time to do creative thinking. Find a quiet place and a time just for you to promote creativity.

6. Remove obstacles: Some of the things that hinder creativity are living in the same environment, taking no initiative to do things, thinking of the past, and doing things the same old way. You are also a loner, stubborn, without foresight. You don’t do enough research and hesitate to take action.

7. Creativity is hard work: You can’t be creative with nothing to work on. You need to have knowledge of the subject and you also need to talk to people who know the subject well. With the knowledge you have gained and mix with your imagination, you create.

According to Franklin D. Roosevelt,” Happiness is not in the mere possession of money; it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort.”
