To be creative is to use ones gifts in the material world as in painting, style in wearing clothes or the way one decorates their home. Creativity is expressed in music with instruments, voice, mixing, scratching, notes, rhythms, etc. Creativity is a gift from above. It can show ones perspective on life and death. How one views life, how one views problems, how one views opportunities; all these things are creative events or not.
To be individually creative is show flair and sometimes genius, in your end product or statement (e.g. flash of brilliance). A creative professional might be a fashion designer, producer, journalist, novelist, director, singer, painter, event planner, or teacher . . . you can find professionally creative people everywhere. They show their strength by getting results, making things beautiful and/or making mischief.
Creativity can be used for bad as in bank robberies, fraud, and disguise. Have you heard about Bernie Madoff who made off with billions of other people’s money with a pyramid scheme that appeared like an exclusive respectable investment company (Forbes, 2008)? Things that can keep one from being creative are negativity, stress, noise, and lack of sleep, lack of food, ignorance, and fear. Or one can get arrested : )
The creative process is like strategic planning. Ideas move from the mind to paper or into words then collaborate and marinate until fruition.
