All through our lives we are being taught to be creative, to think out of box, to think in a way which creates a niche in the world we live in.
But no one tells , how do we develop the habit of being creative, when all our lives we are being taught to color inside the lines when we are young, to write in a a structured way , to do things in an ordered way.
Haven’t we questioned this to our “self” when someone has said us, to be CREATIVE ,to think out of box?
So how do we start living in a way where we think, breathe creatively.Where every action is anew to us .
First thing first to cultivate the idea of creativity among your child or the generation x, it is foremost that the children shouldn’t be emphasised for coloring inside the lines. Let their imagination be beyond the lines.
They shouldn’t be emphasized either that an apple is red in color. Let their curious mind ignite their own imagination and observation .
As for us , The grown ups , all is still not lost . It may be that you too unlike me where not able to get that type of environment , where the child imagination and curiosity is given a window to escape free from the confines of the classrooms.
The grownups can still get CREATIVE SLEEP,if they make it a point in taking time to reshape, the already casted thinking into a new way of thinking.
For this,it is essential to do a hobby in spare time. The idea behind it , is to rejenuvate the ,thinking process.To relax the tensed , strained nerve cells to get creative sleep.
We all have become so busy in our lives that we don’t spare time for our brain to rest and relax. It is only, when we take creative sleep , only then we can breath – in creativity in our minds.
For example if one is fond of drawing or painting then , even a small stroke or mere scribbling on a paper,can help a person in clearing the cobwebs of work and life. Once that is cleared then one can surely think creatively ie out of the box!
