How to be more creative
Thursday, September 9, 2010 at 9:21AM Why do some seem to have a constant flow of creative ideas while others get stuck at every turn? There are certian types of thinkers in this world, and those who were born with the creative gene have natural thoughts that lead them to being creative. For the rest of us, creativity is something that takes a lttle effort.
Can it be learned? I think so and have practiced training my brain to nake it work.
Here's my plan for sparking creativity.
+ Read or think about the idea (best if done right before you fall asleep)
+ Try to relate the theme to a past or recent life experience. This will draw a connection and start the flow of thoughts streaming into your brain.
+ Next, intentionally focus on something completely separate from the idea.
+ That's it. The magic starts to happen and a creative idea, thought, or solution pops into your head.
It might take some practice, but be patient it works.
