How to become creative
• Think or say “strictly anything”, at random, is already to
be creative.
• Creativity never rises from nothing.
What we think we
have discovered, existed already.
But, it had not before,
drawn our attention or shown its possibilities.
• Creativity is a behaviour (attitude towards life).
A mental
capacity which must be developed & trained.
• To refuse to be creative is a deliberate choice which
counters to our true nature.
