Life Shifts

Change can take place whether are not they are ones we are working for. Their called “Life Shifts”. They can not only compliment changes we want but they can be of their own doing. As many times as not they can be for the positive.

Mindset

It can set the tone for how these changes affect you, your life and those around you. Another word for mindset is perception. How you perceive change can make all the difference in the world. Of course judging too soon can be detrimental to the change process.

My Friend

He had a good life for him where he was, but as is human nature he wasn't satisfied. Mainly, because during the years things changed around him and he refused to accept them. So, he moved in search of the things that once made him happy. He never gave the change a chance thus never finding the happiness he longed for. Now, he is moving again. Again looking to create change to find the same things he lost. While I wish him well he somewhere along the line to has come to terms with not only his own changes but the life shifts that will take place around him. If not seeking more change to find happiness will forever elude him.

 

Can Creativity Be Taught

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.
