Being Creative

I once read somewhere that if you create, you’re creative. I love that perspective.

Think of all the things you do in a day. Did you cook a meal, organize your living space or write an email? If so, you were creative. Each of us is capable of putting care and enthusiasm into the activity in front of us. We can follow our curiosity, be interesting, and entertain one more idea that happens to be different. Kids are creative to keep from being bored. Why can’t adults do the same?

Creativity is not just reserved for world-changing geniuses. It’s a practice of interjecting yourself into the process and experiencing joy at the same time.

Don’t let anyone tell you you’re not creative. It’s your choice.
