Finding the solutions to the problems we have and those that others share with us often requires a creative approach. It’s not often that we have an instinctive and no-brainer answer to a genuine problem, mostly because by the time we get to this point we’ve likely solved it or made it a lot worse. We take the tools of the moment, the ideas surrounding the moment, and make something useful out of it. If you remember MacGyver, he’d often construct something out of little bits and bobs in a technical engineering way. The A-Team would do something similar, building various machines and traps that usually made use of their indestructible van and a cunning disguise.
Creativity is the process of taking what we have and using it to make something new, for a purpose, or simply for the pure enjoyment of it. We can apply this principle to nearly every aspect of life, with an infinite number of dimensions that can be aligned to the process of finding something new. The various disciplines of life make use of time-served techniques and methods that become the solid foundations for new ideas, novel practices, and particular answers to very specific one-off problems. The more dynamic and shifting an industry is, the more creativity is required to stay in the centre ground. To be at the top of the league, creativity and technique must work together to the point of excellence. The more honed and experienced a technique has become, the more polished the individual components of it will be for creative uses. Although creative processes can take place in every walk of life, there are some people who are more suited to creative activity than others. As we all come with different personalities, each one with its virtues and weaknesses, creative individuals are more likely to seek out new paths and better ways. Rather than shying from problems, they like to solve them. The creative process can be summed up simply as listening to ideas and problems, applying what we know to them, and then acting on the problem with our application. Often, it is our own problems that we listen to or those in our family. Professional creativity involves listening to the recurring problems of the wider world. Sometimes we are asked to provide bespoke answers and sometimes we’re asked to solve problems with an answer already given but not working. Human creativity is about the governance of the line between reality and fantasy. An idea that doesn’t have substance can be turned into a material object or process of value in a cultural context with the applied creativity of one or more people. It might sound simple; however, this is an incredibly powerful part of our toolkit that has enabled us to progress from the canopy. Finding purpose in our creativity means listening to the issues that matter and the desires that are relevant. When we have linked our process to the tangible reality the real work can begin. To create things that have intrinsic value, the result needs to have a clear purpose. Not only this but the purpose has to resonate with human needs. These stem from mind, body, and spirit. We need to keep all three of these things happy, mental, physical, and emotional nourishment are important for all of us. Creative processes tap into these fundamental requirements to offer new and interesting ways to sustain and improve the wellbeing of these aspects. From practical things like a new way of banking to spiritual things like a book about God, the human being is sustained and nourished with a continual diet of beneficial creativity. Many people are psychologically motivated to be the best they can be, to make the most of their given attributes, and become successful by doing the things they enjoy and are particularly good at doing. We like getting good at being good. It is rewarding for us and gives us a sense of self-esteem that may have been lacking before we applied ourselves. Even if we don’t rank in the top of the group, winning little battles against our previous selves makes the art of progress beneficial. Some of us are better at pure creativity and can apply it to whatever is put in front of us. Innovators, entrepreneurs, inventors, (the decent) supply teachers, they all have highly creative jobs. Creativity by its nature changes the social and economic landscape. Depending on your own level of reach, the level of reach of your creativity will follow. If your idea is valuable, then it’s likely to travel beyond as more people adopt it or at least come up with something based on it. It isn’t a simple thing to be creative. The whole process requires not only a strict process but a strict mental regime. Things that put a stop to creativity are the things that put a block between our subconscious and our conscious mind. Stress, anxiety, fear, and monologue all stand between you and your brain’s inner computer. The idea is for the two to talk to each other in ways that make the subconscious conscious. Naturally, the inner landscape of our subconscious mind is not fit for purpose when it comes to conscious expression, however the motivation is on our side, and it can offer insights and missing pieces that we feel make sense out of the situation. Once we consciously process the various concepts and ideas that come to mind, we can put them into physical use. Our evolution is as ancient as life itself so when it has a good idea, if it really is a good idea, then you should listen to it. You know you can’t maul your problems in a dark cave, so you can be the judge of your own ideas and once they’re out in the world, it’s up to the rest of us. The best creativity happens when you're relaxed and stress free. A good start might be browsing this awesome comic and toy shop, it's safe for grownups and kids.
