As I was reading this on the internet (also a past year question in one of my subjects), I can't really find the real answers. The question was
'Name five types of creativity block'. I googled for it and found no answers... there was 'types of creativity' but no 'type of creativity block'. So I guess the answers could be these... or not :P
1. 'I'm not creative'
Many creative people are afraid to be laughed at or thinking that their ideas may not work. They think too much negative thoughts, like people not approving it or rejecting their ideas. This is wrong as we must be confident of ourselves and have faith.
2. 'Creativity equal arts'
People misundertood that creativity only appears in the art field/ industry. Actually art also exist in many other forms, that we didn't aware of. Song writters, bakers, architectures, game programmer... even weapon designers are creative people. So let your creativity show no matter what work/ studies you're in!
3. 'Creativity is madness'
Some see too much of tvs and thought that only mad people or 'genius' people show creativity. That is totally absurd! Normal people can become creative. In fact, there are more 'normal' creative people out there than there are 'super' ones. So never underestimate yourself... you may become the next innovator out of thin air!
4. 'Creativity cannot be taught'
Because people that that creativity cannot be taught, most quit studying creative fields because of that. The truth is creative CAN be learned, it can also be inspired... experienced... tried and created in the end. Like most other subjects, we must see more, learn more and thus we will become a better creative person like that. Like the saying goes, practice makes...? (not pancakes!)
5. 'Creativity is a luxury'
Hmm... how should I interprete this? It means studying creativity is not just for the rich. Even poor people can show and study creativity and become successful in the end. Leonardo Da Vinci, the super genius, came from a very poor family! And we should not be proud of our creativity, we should continue becoming humble and learning more in life to become more successful, till the end.
The end.
