Creativity: What It Really Is

Creativity: What It Really Is

We wrongly assume that being creative means being an artist, writer or painter. Solving creative problems, inventing new technology, being better at communication, and saving time with innovative measures all come under creativity.

We were taught in school that creative people are right-brain thinkers and analytical, problem-solving minds were using the left side of the brain. The truth is not so simple, as creativity comes from both hemispheres.

The Default Mode Network: A Key Brain Region

The Default Mode Network: A Key Brain Region

The Trinity Of Creativity

The Trinity Of Creativity

To enhance the creativity we already experience every day, we need to tap into three aspects of our brains:

  1. Memory: Try to remember past events, using the tools of notes and journals.
  2. Imagination: Make use of creative visualization, brainstorming and mind-mapping abilities of your mind. Your imagination is your biggest superpower.
  3. Mind-wandering: Doing nothing is a type of meditation, and we have to let our mind wander while cooking, strolling in the park or taking a shower.

Don’t look further if you love learning new things. A refreshing concept that provides quick ideas for busy thought leaders.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Sean Green

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Jamyson Haug

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.

Ghazala Begum

Even five minutes a day will improve your thinking. I've come across new ideas and learnt to improve existing ways to become more motivated, confident and happier.

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
