Now, it maybe that we do not see ourselves as creative by comparison, we may like to think on the piano and we consider that note side would be the comparison so then, we consider ourselves by comparison that we are not creative.
We may like to paint and we are not a Van Gough, so, we diminish our creativity in that way. The truth is that we are all creative. In fact, even a CEO that he would not ordinarily consider to be a creative endeavor is extraordinarily creative. A CEO has to be responsible of so many aspects of the business, a CEO has to juggle various people and various aspects of the business.
This is very creative and I think, what we are thinking in terms of creativity, collectively, we think of what is the end artistic result? Is it a film, is it a book, is it a sculpture, is it a painting?
Creativity go as much deeper than that. It goers much further than that. Having an artful conversation is a way of being creative. Being inspiring and motivated is being creative. Inspiring others to create is being creative, so, the creativity is much more of a—perhaps you might think of it as a link in a chain that we are all connected.
And if we see ourselves as separate, well then maybe we see ourselves as little less creative. As long as we see ourselves as part of the chain, then we are part of the creative process.
Is your mother creative before she is created as a child? I mean—what more magnificent, miraculous thing that you can create as a child? So being a parent is creative. If somebody is doing manual labor, there was a creative aspect to it, if they choose to see it that way. There is a joy in being creative. So, creativity is a wonderful topic and if you do not think that you are being creative, think again.
