Creangelism – spreitendes the word creativity
business, Career February 14th, 2008This article is a plea for something, I call Creangelism designer or evangelism. Let me explain.
I talked to the creativity of the best conferences in the world .* It is incredibly fun and taking public speaking with people who believe in the creative power of creativity and problem solving. Walking around her meetings, I am empowered by the absence of a judgement, the acceptance of ideas, the acceptance of me, and frankly, love, I think everyone. If I am new in the conferences in the real world is sometimes a shock.
The real world is full of the judgement, non-acceptance, ignorance and cruelty true. Creativity is a remote designed for the vast majority of the people. Everyone is creative, but not everyone uses their creativity, indeed, unopened, it’s a wealth of useful resources we all.
The re-entries creativity conferences on the “real” world I think is interested in creativity and l ‘,’ s not. He got the feeling I needed more creativity, and already has a large quantity. It made me read books on creativity and innovation, read books about fantasy, and reading books on solving problems. He thought that most people whose reading is an adventure novel novel, a comic book, or nothing at all.
It is me, that the world is divided in two. On the one hand, we have well-educated people, read books about the imagination, creativity, marketing, innovation, etc. They are much more frequent. You have problems, but they have a way of dealing, they invade, they thrive. Ask yourself if they are creative and they say, oh yes, certainly, I am.
On the other hand, we humans are fighting every day with things. Let me enough money to pay rent and food on the table. They are hardly to offer, or even sliding and the definition of leadership in a sea of despair and loneliness. They do not read books about creativity – what is the most on his mind. Should the creativity and creative thinking? In the worst way! Did they think they are creative? As a general rule, do not.
Books about creativity in general, preaching to the choir of those who already feel already admitted. You want to improve and of course, but they are polished silver, as opposed to a bifurcation. You are refining their creative thinking tools and techniques.
People must learn to think most makers are those least likely to stumble on it, the more rare to hear an explanation.
The creative thinking is the ultimate self-empowerment tool. The sad news is that most makers believe is the man. They are not learning from others, is not the tool for all who need it most. I call that creative people Creangelists, that is to say the word, you would think that the more creative, to the world. Yes, creative thinking can be taught. These questions have been trained, as they also had an impact on their lives. As religious evangelists sometimes the message is not well received, yes, we should not preach water and drink wine. We must show that more people think creatively, through support to finding solutions to the challenges of their lives. Not a solution among themselves, but an indication of the way of thinking, their own solutions.
It is a kind of micro-loans of ideas.
I tried again Creangelism prisoners in Chicago. I have many boys and one in particular was very open to try and creative thinking. He was 40 hours, and was imprisoned for 20 years. Life on the outside was new and disturbing. We took coffee and we worked through her first serious difficulties in finding work, finding suitable accommodation, where he relationships, etc. creative thinking techniques. I think he learned how to solve its own problems, because a large proportion of those working creative problem-solving meetings. Six years later, he is a qualified electrician with his own shop. He has a specialty of the installation of large televisions and it can not all the work that he has always been. At this moment there is recruitment. Of course, this is not always this way. But the doctrine of this man, as the fish I gave him a tool for the rest of his life.
So if you are creative, share your knowledge about the creative process, which it should. Be a Creangelist.
