What builds our Creativity?

Defining creativity might easy to some people, but are those kind of people really got creativity at all? Is creativity a natural talent or an achievement? In creativity, there are some myths. It's all about that only certain people can get creativity, true or not? No, not at all.

1) Special talented people only are creative
Just because they are talented, doesn't mean they are perfect in creativity. If we want to do something creative, we need to do lots of things with hardwork and patient in order to be crative person. Everyone can do that, not special person only.

2) Being creative is hard
It is hard as first, but it will get easy as time goes by as we spent more time of what we should doing. Like mentioned before...patient.

3) Problems in our life make it more difficult.
The problems are the solutions in the creativity, because after all, problems tend to give you more time to get something in order to work. Of course sometimes we should not take the problems together that are not related to our work together or we might misleading it. But in creativity, every negative things can be turned into positive.

4) I'm not creative!
Creative is not a certain thing that only available to some people. Creative is for everyone. Even the simple, tiny mistake you have done, people can think that it is a creative way to do.

5) Innovation is the domain of geniuses.
The geniuses do the innovation, but that does not mean it can be applied to them only.

6) Got brand new ideas, considered as creative.
New ideas, without confirmation of the working, is not a creative way. Thus, only the idea without extracting it from our brain still is not creative.

7) Brainstorming is hardworking things.
The best way to keep brainstorming simple is to list down all the ideas we got. Even something that is crazy enough to be in our minds, can be jot down to make a lot of improvements, thus generated the ideas of making it.

8) Artists can be creative, only
There are lots of people who are not considered as artists, can do something that most people thinks it is creative. The artist is just a title for the honor of what they have done. It is certainly not a permanent term of creative dictionary in our life.

9) Using structured creative techniques will hinder my ability to be creative.
Just consider as side work. It should not be fully dependable. There are certain things that we night never know to get something in creative way, but the techniques we use might help us to make something, rather than thinning the ability.
