Here's the 5 ways to develop the creativity in students:1. Create your own IfsNumerous great creators/innovators take an existing object and pose the clever questions to twist its actual idea and make it new. Steve jobs didn't start of an idea of Smartphone. He just took the existed Smartphone and ask the question to himself that how can he modify it to make it better or the best. Let's clear about this, there are nothing universally verified, it's just their approach to develop their own ideas through their interest, speciality and type of thinking or even what type of team working with you.

Creative Thinking Skills

What would happen if I change it?How can I improve in this object if I have to use it for more 10 to 12 years?What would I do if I have One Million Rupees to invest?How much time it will take if I start now?This questions can become Powerful tool to you that can help you to think in a different way. But it is important to practice this to get more useful effect of this. You have to exercise your mind to improve your creative thinking by asking Ifs. To develop creativity in your mind, start thinking more and more. Initially you will not get much better results, but later on you will be pleased.

I usually suggest you to ask simply Ifs to yourself?

The greatest thing is that the creative thinking is not the product of IQ.It is just based upon your imagination, Practicing your power of observation and dreaming.Your imagination can be big or small to change the world. It sounds so simple,but it become very confusing to you when you can't imagine the things. All too often in our daily life,we are just spending our day in front of television.It just kill your creative mind and ability of thinking.So,at the end of the day, we just come up with an idea that we will not watch the television from tomorrow for longer time.Sound so familiar.Right?

2. Imagination

3. Set up learning activities in your classroom or home that allow you to explore creativity in relevant, interesting, and worthwhile waysSuppose your teacher has given some rock sample and he told you to determine the differences between these samples which you have understand by the definition. Every students have different opinions regarding this such as someone has created difference by colour, some by appearance and others by hardness.

The one who learn everyday, for them it becomes very easy to learn from their activities. When your teacher have told you to look after the matter, everyone has their different ideas and concepts to see the matter. When you think and imagine more and more, your creativity enhances to give the best results which you deserve.*Activities to develop Creative Thinking:<ul><li>Lateral-thinking </li><li>Visual reading (Concept-mapping)</li><li>Think out of your mentality</li><li> Artistic creativity</li><li> Problem-solving Abilities</li><li>Analytical thinking</li></ul>

"Creativity takes courage" is a notable statement from the artist. Emphasizing the value in mistakes will allow you to create a safe space for making the steps to success.The following are a couple of ways of advancing this idea with your group. <ul><li>Give your friends the positive feedback when they commit an error and permit them to tackle an issue to find an answer. </li><li>Read books,It will assist with supporting transforming mistakes into arts in spite of an initial failure.</li><li>Take a paper with a dot,rip, orpaint splatter and transform it into something lovely.This assists how mistake can be transferred.</li></ul>

How to develop Creative thinking skills in students

A friend often tells me I’m bad at self-care. When I ask him what he means, he usually responds with some version of “Well, you know.” But really, I don’t know what self-care is, what it means to be bad at it, or even why I should be good at it. Being told I’m bad at self-care usually feels like being told I’m bad at a job I didn’t apply for and that I’m not even paid for.

What it Means

If I don’t know these things, on the other hand, I’m probably the only one. Self-care is a cliché of the times; cliché enough that it’s been written about from almost every angle: There are celebratory pieces and critical pieces, pieces that use it as a buzzword and pieces that attempt to contextualize it. (Michel Foucault is often invoked, I find.) In 2020, the poet Leigh Stein published a satirical novel, Self Care, about a progressive women’s startup. That simple title conveys almost everything you need to know about the book’s focus and tone.

A Clichè

Self-care is a marketing gimmick, and thus a favored object of critique. Still, I want to know what I’m missing. In the novel, as in most writing about the term, there’s a nod toward self-care’s origins in the work of activist Audre Lorde, who wrote, in her essay collection A Burst of Light, that “caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.”

Self-Preservation

Stein’s book did not include, though it easily could have, the subsequent complications of that particular quotation—namely, that it comes at the end of a grueling diary of Lorde’s experiences with breast cancer, which would eventually take her life. In Lorde’s diary, the details of caring-for-self are not as clear as the motivating force behind it: laying claim to the life you have. Dying from cancer is outside her control, but living despite it is not.

Lorde's Diary

“How do I want to live the rest of my life,” a 1985 entry opens, “and what am I going to do to ensure that I get to do it exactly or as close as possible to how I want that living to be? I want to live the rest of my life, however long or short, with as much sweetness as I can decently manage, loving all the people I love, and doing as much as I can of the work I still have to do.”

How To Live

Questions of how to make the most of your life become pointed when mortality is no longer an abstraction. Reframed thus, self-care might be thought of as the newest form of the art of living well, the understanding of a good life that exists in the particular balance of structure and spontaneity, a practice that encompasses both discipline and indulgence.

A New Art of Living

Waking up early, eating healthy food, journaling, and exercise are all self-care as much as ordering in, treating yourself to a nicer bottle of wine, watching a trashy movie, or taking a long bath. It’s about tending to the human body like an animal: listening to what makes it happy, and what makes it not. This definition is still compatible with intense self-absorption. In Stein’s novel, Devin, one of the women at its center, spends her time drifting from treatment to treatment, colon cleansing, going to workouts, and otherwise meticulously tending to herself.

10 Reasons Why You Should Never Give Up on Your Dreams

How to stop worrying and start living by Dale Carnegie, is one of the classics in Self-help and motivational genre, which analyses our day-to-day worries in everyone's life and shows us simple actionable suggestions to overcome. Despite the 'age' of the book (It was first published in 1948), the entire content is still current, usable, and easily applicable. No wonder why more than 16 Million copies are sold!.Here’re my top-3 learning from the book:

3 POWERFUL LESSONS FROM 'HOW TO STOP WORRYING AND START LIVING'

Most of the worries come from either things that are entirely out of our control; or things that are far ahead (that’s anxiety). First, we must ask ourselves what kind of problem we have and whether we can do anything about it. Often we aren't happy because we try to change things that we can't change. we should learn to identify those things and accept them as the first step, and look further to make the impact better. Also to focus just on today, do our best today, the future will take care of itself.

1. A problem understood/analyzed is half-solved

Worry gets into your mind, only when you’re “reactive”. When something starts to get you worried, be “proactive” and start gathering as many facts as you can about the situation, then use those facts to develop a plan of attack. Once the attack plan is in place, get them down into implementation without any anxiety about the outcome.

2. Break the Worry Before It Breaks You

Analyze the criticisms; if it's unjustified just view it as a compliment. Unjustified criticism mostly comes from a person jealous of your senses. On the other hand, If the criticism is well stated and mature, then you be thankful for it because it's coming from someone who sincerely wants to help you and may have the wisdom to share. This would eliminate. If you have a read this book, feel free to add your views; If you have not, go ahead and read it. The understanding principle it really helps you in understanding what value

3. How to keep from worrying about criticism?

With the canoe more than anything it’s the journey and not the destination that matters

The more you immerse yourself in your surroundings the more you get out of a journey

The canoe is the most magical way to see the wild, to get close to wildlife. You really are communing with nature when you travel in a canoe. I really enjoy it… It’s also a great panacea for the world we live in today, when you paddle a canoe, you learn to move at the pace of the water and the sooner you accept that fact life becomes so much easier and simpler

It always takes a couple of days to settle into the journey, muscles need to acclimatise to the demands of paddling, and the body and mind must adapt to the river. Once you’ve tuned in you can paddle for weeks

One of the things I like about bushcraft is that hidden in amongst all of these skills is something else and that is the business of never giving in, and I think that that’s what these things teach; it’s not just about lighting a fire on the ground, it’s about lighting a fire within

The reality of a wilderness journey is this is all there is and what you have to do is put the boat first, because that’s your means of getting home

[Pierre Trudeau] said that what sets a canoeing expedition apart is that it purifies you more rapidly and inescapably than any other; travel a thousand miles by train and you are a brute, pedal five hundred miles on a bicycle and you remain basically bourgeois. But paddle a hundred in a canoe and you are already a child of nature, I couldn't agree more

When it comes to the minimalism of doing, distractions are the biggest obstacle.We must first identify what’s most important to us, what we’re passionate about, what we want to spend our time on. And then we must focus on those things first.But the distractions. They get in the way of this focusing, no?And so we must kill the distractions with the zeal of a maniacal dictator. Without all the actual bloodiness, you know.Without distractions, you’ll be able to focus. You’ll find peace. You’ll find time for doing what you love.Here’s how:

Clear distractions

<ul><li>Cut back your social networking to network (or two at the most) – including Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, forums, etc. These are hugely distracting.</li><li>Cut back on your social networking “friends”. Stick to your actual friends and colleagues. Networking with thousands of people you don’t know is superficial and distracting.</li><li>Limit time on social networking, email to specified periods. Set the times you allow yourself to do these activities – from 1-2 p.m., for example.</li></ul>

Cut back social networking

<ul><li>Do less email. Start by sending less. Check email less often. Use the phone or face-to-face conversations when possible.</li><li>Shut down the internet to work. Disconnect, and work without distractions.</li><li>Separate consuming from creating. Reading and networking and emailing are different from actually creating. Do them at separate times.</li><li>Set a limited reading time. If you read a lot on the web, or RSS feeds, set limits and do it at specified times.</li><li>Shut off notifications. Email, Blackberry, IM, whatever. Shut em down.</li></ul>

Reduce email and internet

<ul><li>Clear away icons on your desktop. File them all in one folder, and use an app launcher such as LaunchBar or Launchy.</li><li><a href="https://zenhabits.net/steps-to-permanently-clear-desk/">Clear your actual desk</a>.</li><li>Use music to block out your surroundings.</li><li>Get away from the computer, spend time with actual people.</li><li>Shut off the smartphone. Seriously.</li></ul>

Environment design

<ul><li><a href="https://zenhabits.net/how-not-to-multitask-work-simpler-and/">Single-task</a> and focus.</li><li>Focus on the most important tasks first, before you get distracted.</li><li>Set limits on your work hours. If your time is limited, you’ll find ways to make the most of that limited time.</li></ul>

“Most people optimize for the day ahead. A few people optimize for 1-2 years ahead. Almost nobody optimizes for 3-4 years ahead (or longer).The person who is willing to delay gratification longer than most reduces competition and gains a decisive advantage.Patience is power.”

3 Ideas From Me - #1

“The biggest risk to productivity is always the same: working on the wrong thing.”

“Being pleasant and having a good attitude is a simple way to become luckier.Opportunities come through people, and people are more likely to bring opportunities to people they like.It's hard to win if your attitude adds friction to every interpersonal experience.”

Filmmaker Alanis Obomsawin on the value of nature:“When the last tree is cut, the last fish is caught, and the last river is polluted; when to breathe the air is sickening, you will realize, too late, that wealth is not in bank accounts and that you can’t eat money.”

2 QUOTES FROM OTHERS

“Twenty years after my own graduation, I have come gradually to understand that the liberal arts cliché about “teaching you how to think” is actually shorthand for a much deeper, more serious idea: Learning how to think really means learning how to exercise some control over how and what you think. It means being conscious and aware enough to choose what you pay attention to and to choose how you construct meaning from experience. Because if you cannot exercise this kind of choice in adult life, you will be totally hosed.”

Look around the rooms where you spend the most time.What behavior does this space encourage? How can you set things up to make your good habits easier?

The ability to manage your time effectively is important. Good time management leads to improved efficiency and productivity, less stress, and more success in life. Here are some benefits of managing time effectively:

Benefits of Time Management

Making and following a task schedule reduces anxiety. As you check off items on your “to-do” list, you can see that you are making tangible progress. This helps you avoid feeling stressed out with worry about whether you’re getting things done.

1. Stress relief

Good time management gives you extra time to spend in your daily life. People who can time-manage effectively enjoy having more time to spend on hobbies or other personal pursuits.

2. More time

Managing time well leads to more opportunities and less time wasted on trivial activities. Good time management skills are key qualities that employers look for. The ability to prioritize and schedule work is extremely desirable for any organisation.

3. More opportunities

Individuals who practice good time management are able to better achieve goals and objectives, and do so in a shorter length of time.

4. Ability to realize goals

After considering the benefits of time management, let’s look at some ways to manage time effectively:

List of Tips for Effective Time Management

Set goals that are achievable and measurable. Use the SMART method when setting goals. In essence, make sure the goals you set are S pecific, M easurable, A ttainable, R elevant, and T imely.

1. Set goals correctly

Prioritize tasks based on importance and urgency. For example, look at your daily tasks and determine which are: <ul><li>Important and urgent: Do these tasks right away. </li><li>Important but not urgent: Decide when to do these tasks. </li><li>Urgent but not important: Delegate these tasks if possible. </li><li>Not urgent and not important: Set these aside to do later. </li> </ul>

2. Prioritize wisely

Setting time constraints for completing tasks helps you be more focused and efficient. Making the small extra effort to decide on how much time you need to allot for each task can also help you recognize potential problems before they arise. That way you can make plans for dealing with them.

3. Set a time limit to complete a task

When doing a lot of tasks without a break, it is harder to stay focused and motivated. Allow some downtime between tasks to clear your head and refresh yourself. Consider grabbing a brief nap, going for a short walk, or meditating.

4. Take a break between tasks

Utilize your calendar for more long-term time management. Write down the deadlines for projects, or for tasks that are part of completing the overall project. Think about which days might be best to dedicate to specific tasks. For example, you might need to plan a meeting to discuss cash flow on a day when you know the company CFO is available.

5. Organize yourself

It is important to remove excess activities or tasks. Determine what is significant and what deserves your time. Removing non-essential tasks/activities frees up more of your time to be spent on genuinely important things.

6. Remove non-essential tasks/activities

Make sure you start every day with a clear idea of what you need to do – what needs to get done THAT DAY. Consider making it a habit to, at the end of each workday, go ahead and write out your “to-do” list for the next workday. That way you can hit the ground running the next morning.

7. Plan ahead

Time management is the process of planning and controlling how much time to spend on specific activities. Good time management enables an individual to complete more in a shorter period of time, lowers stress, and leads to career success  .
