- Who Is The Best Creativity Guru In The World?
By: Puneet Bhatnagar | - If you are like me, your mind must be searching for answers. Who could be the best among them all?
It's a tough competition. Edword de Bono? Michael Michalko ? May be Tony Buzan?
You might have someone else in your mind. Like one of your teachers or a workshop leader. As they say, there are no right or wrong answers.

- How To Slay The Fear Monger Through Creativity
By: Valery Satterwhite | - Fear cripples creativity. Nothing new there. We've all experienced fear as we reach for inspiration, motivation and satisfaction. Fear dwells at the bottom of the pit of desperation. Fear is the lowest of lows.

- Crafts For Fostering Creativity In Children
By: Michelle Patelle | - Children love to experience the joy of making something that did not exist before they put their hands on it. Quite typically after creating their object of beauty they will turn around and give it away immediately to their teacher, parent or friend. Children instinctively know that the best gifts come from their hearts, and they put their hearts in every craft, a product of their creative minds and hands.

- Methods For Creativity
By: Creatinnvo | - Methods for creativity
Evolution. This is the method of incremental improvement. New ideas stem from other ideas, new solutions from previous ones, the new ones slightly improved over the old ones. Many of the very sophisticated things we enjoy today developed through a long period of constant incrementation. Making something a little better here, a little better there gradually makes it something a lot better--even entirely different from the original.
For example ...

- Things That Block Creativity
By: Creatinnvo | - 1. Prejudice. The older we get, the more preconceived ideas we have about things. These preconceptions often prevent us from seeing beyond what we already know or believe to be possible.
2. Functional fixation. Sometimes we begin to see an object only in terms of its name rather in terms of what it can do. Thus, we see a mop only as a device for cleaning a floor, and do not think that it might be useful for clearing cobwebs from the ceiling, washing the car, doing aerobic exer ...

- Your Creativity Quotient - How To Boost It
By: Steve Gillman | - We don't have a precisely-numbered measure of your "creativity quotient," yet, like we have for your intelligence quotient, or "IQ." But tests which do try to measure your creative ability generally look at three criteria. These are the quantity of your ideas, their originality, and the possible usefulness or "quality" of those ideas. With that in mind, here are some techniques for doing better in all three areas.

By: Mary McNeil | - What makes creative output creative? How do you recognize creativity when you see it or hear it?

- Naturally Increase Your Creativity And Intuition Using Alpha Meditation
By: Richard Weber | - In order to understand how alpha meditation can help improve your creativity, it is important to start by understanding what binaural beats and brainwave entrainment are.

- Decluttering & Creativity
By: Mary McNeil | - Intuitively the link between decluttering and creativity makes sense doesn't it? Creativity thrives in the land of new ideas and open thinking, while clutter tends to be characterised by clinging on to old ideas, attitudes, habits and possessions. In order to free yourself up to be fabulously creative, you often need to be prepared to let go of the clutter first. Inspiration is unlikely to emerge unless you've created a space for it.
Clutter generally builds up quietly and imperc ...

While the physical act of putting words on paper or into a computer is easy to recognize as "work" one of the hardest parts of any writer's task is not always coming up with the words to express an idea.

- Being The Rose, An Exercise In Creativity
By: Emily Hanlon | - We walk half asleep, experiencing only a small part of our creative passion, insight and being. Our vision is by the eyes of the mind, which are cast outwards. Creativity, however, is birthed in the cosmic landscape of the inner world, a place to which the mind's eyes are blind, a place belonging to the vision of the heart and soul. The question is, how do we awaken to the immensity of knowing contained within.
One way is through nature. Nature, fully noticed, and entered into wit ...

By: Emily Hanlon | - The Land of Betwixt and Between is as a place of inspiration. You can travel there, too!

The place of betwixt and between is the magic, the mystery, the essence of creativity when nothing is what it se ...

- Creativity As Mediator Between The Worlds, Or Wild Dog's Kingdom
By: Emily Hanlon | - Creativity is a mysterious journey that connects us to the unseen worlds. There was a time when all people had access to the unseen worlds, although it was the shamans, story tellers and healers who mediated between the worlds as they journeyed into the Mystery and interpreted the images found there. Today we have our contemporary journeyers into the cosmic unseen worlds--many creative people are such journeyers--but as a culture we have lost the connection to our instinctual nature. With the de ...

- Can Creativity Be Taught?
By: Ricky Lim | - Many people think that creativity is a trait that is only reserved for people who are born with the talent. That it is a child's natural talent, a gift if you would call it and like beauty, it is not possible to nurture and develop it. That it can't be taught by any means. Well, I do not think so.
I believe creativity is a skill that can be taught and developed to anyone especially children. The main reason why I think children are more suited to creativity training is because chi ...

By: Angie Dixon | - I guess the best way to begin this discussion is by asking,
What Is "Everyday Creativity"?
I like to think of creativity as being an extraordinary thing that happens every minute to every person.

Some Introductory Thoughts...
I make my living, such as it is, on creativity, spit and a little shoe polish. Well, not so much spit and shoe polish. I'm a writer, a designer, and a serial entrepreneur. I'm also a so-called expert on creativity. Which is why I found myself, at three o'clock one morning, thinking about the inherent value of creativity.
Well, that's one reason; the other is that I couldn't sleep, and I ...
