It's Good To Know

Society Changes And So Should You. How To Discover Your Creativity | Alternative Fruit

1/11/2019

 Nothing's perfect is it? And that means opportunity! We are here at this time when the world needs certain things to change. We adapt our methods and objects according to what the needs and capabilities of the day are. Creativity fuels this change, if it wasn't for the experimenters and inventors then nothing would ever change. Imagine a world without inventions and technology, imagine a world without language and art. Someone had to create all of the things we use. Someone else comes along and improves what they left behind. To be a real driving force in society then we have to think creatively a lot of the time. When we're nervous or unsure then we tend to do what other people do and hope for the best. This means finding our feet in the world of new possibilities can be daunting. It's natural to be nervous so that's why we take steps to counter-act it.


The first thing we all need to do is slow down! So many of us are rushing around trying to get everything done. Not to mention those who take advantage of hard-working responsible people by always being slack, it's actually not the best way to ensure personal growth and ultimately, strength. When we rush around on the edge of anxiety, we don't give our brain enough time to fully appreciate what we're doing. Our preprogrammed responses work for us, we are on an auto-pilot. It's meant to be a short term solution to rare instances of stress, not the way we live day to day. So take it easy, think more, and don't let anyone rush you.

Next, we have to step away from the screens. You're reading some great media at the moment that actually helps you, however, a lot of what is out there is just for fun. Of course, we all love to have fun so all we really ask for is moderation. With all the input from pre-designed full sensory experiences like video, the mind is given the full picture. There's no room to imagine, because it's all there. So give yourself a break, tease the imagination from its shell by taking away the constant stimuli. Finding balance is a bit of an art in itself. 


So you're looking for something new and imaginative? Why not ask a child? Seriously, children don't have as many rational limitations as we do plus they are more capable of visualising things we are yet to see. When it comes to putting their thoughts into practical ideas, that's where we use our own more educated imagination. If you want to earn a professional diploma in child psychology, here's how. 


We have to take up art. When we use our imagination and creativity for something positive and constructive like painting or writing, we exercise the mind and strengthen our creative abilities. The action of putting our imagination into something physical and coherent is a perfect model for the way we take on more formal decisions. It's not only fun to do, it's also a way of giving ourselves the to think and a break from the intrusive screens.

So we feel more comfortable doing something if we know other people are doing it too. So let's use this to our benefit. Read artistic and creative books, enjoy exhibitions and craft fairs. Just surround yourself with creativity and inspirational ideas. There are lots of books and things out there which don't use much creativity. They use tried and tested plots with predictable characters. There is always going to be room for these products at the inn but what we really want is something that bends the iron bar just a little. Are you ready? Take this free course in entrepreneurship.
