Great post (in fact great series) across on successfromthenest on creativity. It was the title of the post which caught my attention “Saying you’re not creative is like saying you’re not human.” I couldn’t agree more.
I do find it helpful to understand people by considering how they adapt to (or cope with) changes and challenges, how they engage with the world and how they create – I agree with Tony Clark about this – a lot of people think they aren’t creative because they don’t draw or write but we are all creative every day. How you make decisions, how you problem solve and how you express yourself is all based on creativity.
Heroes Not Zombies 
Far from ‘not being creative’, the reality is more like, ‘we can’t stop being creative’.
Here’s the simplest proof I can offer.
Close your eyes, go to sleep. You do what? You dream. Fantastical stuff. Weird stuff. Stuff you’ve never thought of while waking.
Here’s the challenge, find out what stops this natural flow of ideas from happening while you’re awake. And stop doing that.
Mostly? It’s the fear that an idea will be rejected by others.
and next? We openly reject the ideas of others.
I think there’s a connection between those two. I’m not certain, but I think there’s an answer there if we care to listen.
Enjoy the day
