Creativity, Learning and Power

Creativity

Creativity stems from the word 'create'. Create is a verb; an action.

Creativity is making something using your imagination and the resources available to you.

A Thought

Creativity is a process.

Thought -- Action -- Refinement. If creativity stops at just the thought process, it is only an idea.

A Truth

"Creativity is like a faucet, the more you open it, the more it flows."

An Application

Learning

Learning is the ability to absorb new information with understanding and eventual practical application.

A Thought

A lot of the skills and abilities that we admire or desire to have can be learned if only we are open-minded.

Power

Power is the influence you have over yourself, the resources available to you, and the people around you.

In and of itself, power is neither good nor bad. The impact of our decisions on ourselves and others is what gives power meaning.

A Truth

'Power' is something many people desire, but few realize they already have.

An Application

What resource is in my control that I am overlooking?

What kind of influence do I have over the people around me?
