Welcome to my CREATIVE STUDIES blog

Hi, my name is Gary Lim Teck Yi - same as the name on my IC .......also same as the name on my ------birth certificate  .For easy to remember my name just call me GARY.This blog is special made for my creative studies and as the owner for this blog, I will post all my knowledge that I had learn from creative studies at here.

Yesterday is my first time attended the of creative studies class.I felt very happy can join the class.During the class, I had learned how to think "CRAZY". Mr Radzi, our lecturer teached us how to think by the creative way and also explain little about human brain.From there, we can know whether we are creative thinker or logical thinker.This is a very special way to differenciate which thinker you are by using our thumbnail.For me, I felt I had learned many new things in the class. For example,when we are sleeping our left part brain also rest but the right part brain still function, so sometimes we will start to dreaming.

That's the introduction for me today.I know being creative is hard but i will try my best because I believe that  

Creativity is an attitude, combine with effort; 1% inspiration and 99% perspirationTHOMAS EDISON




What is CREATIVITY ? 

  • An Ability
A simple definition is that creativity is the ability to imagine or invent something new. As we will see below, creativity is not the ability to create out of nothing (only God can do that), but the ability to generate new ideas by combining, changing, or reapplying existing ideas. Some creative ideas are astonishing and brilliant, while others are just simple, good, practical ideas that no one seems to have thought of yet.
Believe it or not, everyone has substantial creative ability. Just look at how creative children are. In adults, creativity has too often been suppressed through education, but it is still there and can be reawakened. Often all that's needed to be creative is to make a commitment to creativity and to take the time for it. 

  • An Attitude
Creativity is also an attitude: the ability to accept change and newness, a willingness to play with ideas and possibilities, a flexibility of outlook, the habit of enjoying the good, while looking for ways to improve it. We are socialized into accepting only a small number of permitted or normal things, like chocolate-covered strawberries, for example. The creative person realizes that there are other possibilities, like peanut butter and banana sandwiches, or chocolate-covered prunes. 

  • A Process
Creative people work hard and continually to improve ideas and solutions, by making gradual alterations and refinements to their works. Contrary to the mythology surrounding creativity, very, very few works of creative excellence are produced with a single stroke of brilliance or in a frenzy of rapid activity. Much closer to the real truth are the stories of companies who had to take the invention away from the inventor in order to market it because the inventor would have kept on tweaking it and fiddling with it, always trying to make it a little better.

The creative person knows that there is always room for improvement.
