This is a subject that
interests everyone. Who has sat down to doodle and draw at one time
or another thought their life? Or maybe tried to assemble a model,
picked up a craft of one sort or another at a store? The answer is
just about everyone. Why? Because not only are people creativity
curious, it's an innate function of child development.
Maybe you are asking the
wrong question
It's not can I be taught to
be creative? It's more about developing a how can I do this mindset.
Usually this mindset is born out of necessity. For instant I have a
brother that taught himself creative forms of home repair and auto
repair. Sure he needed guidance at times but by using creativity he
built out his ability to problem solve many other fixes. He had no
formal training in these area, but by the power of creative deduction
he found his way.
It's not unlike babies
Nobody shows a child to
climb out of a crib, playpen, or gate. Yet most do. Parents have
reported incidents where children learning how to talk have strung
together coherent word combinations they have never been exposed to.
The mind begins applying creativity by learning and improvising
naturely.
So,
can creativity be taught?
The answer is yes. The
reason is we have been developing the tools to do so our whole lives.
The desire to learn something and take it to the next level is proof
that not only do we possess the ability, but we have what it takes to
apply it to different areas and interest we have in life. We take
creativity and use the tool of knowledge to make creativity a force
in our everyday lives.
