BrainStorm on CREATIVITY

- who all are creative?
- and why can't they be creative all the time?
- creativity never has manufacturing or expiry date
- it can never be created or destroyed
- that means if a person is creative, its there in him always
- then why doesn't it shine always?
- may be the mind needs perfectly healthy environment to think
- "healthy environment" as in a place where everything is at peace, we know the sequence of
events happening, no hustle bustle

“Creativity is essentially a lonely art. An even lonelier struggle. To some a blessing. To
others a curse. It is in reality the ability to reach inside yourself and drag forth from
your very soul an idea.” ~Lou Dorfsman

- but that would mean a straight line life
- but creativity comes out of everyday life events the ups and downs
- life with pots and holes, bumps, niches and loops are places where creativity hides

"Without change there is no innovation, creativity, or incentive for improvement. Those who
initiate change will have a better opportunity to manage the change that is inevitable."
~William Pollard

- then its not the environment that affects creativity, may be the mood
- but mood is the byproduct of everyday events. So with the events, the mood swings

"I can always be distracted by love, but eventually I get horny for my creativity."
~Gilda Radner

- may be the attitude towards the mood should be correct
- but attitude is not a variable quantity, so if at a point an attitude makes me creative it
can't be responsible for me not being creative
- if creativity like energy is never created or destroyed then may be its transfered
- so when we think we are not being creative, we might be pouring it out somewhere else

"Creativity is the power to connect the seemingly unconnected.
~William Plomer

- all those alternative activities where we pour out the creativity are visible and so we would
know that we are still active
- so those are kinetic form of creativity
- what when we are almost inactive or hibernating?
- there might be potential form, a store house of it
- the "thoughts"

"True creativity often starts where language ends."
~Arthur Koestler

- so the mind remains active all the time, keeping the flow of creativity intact with factors affecting it unknowingly, changing directions unwantedly but always existing in some form or other inevitably

"Creativity comes from a conflict of ideas."
~Donatella Versace
