Does Positive Thinking Catalyze Creativity

Every person has the ability to be creative, just tearing down the mental barriers you have and tapping in your inherent ability.

Creativity seems to have emerged with an instinct for survival, basic tools for hunting and gathering, the "must-have" skill for today’s digital professionals. There is a connection, with emotional equivalents, for surviving each day. Developing creativity requires internal motivation, self-awareness, and a positive attitude.

The positive people see the bright side, they have a special mindset that rain or shine, leading them to take risks and develop creativity: Creative people are inspired to think and work nearly every day on creating, they are not waiting for the “Aha” moment, but proactively stimulate the new energy of fresh thinking. What matters is their ability to harness and leverage them and gain from it for the greater good. Indeed, attitude matters, positivity plus adaptation catalyze creativity. Human's adaptation has something to do with survival instincts and strengths. Creative problem-solving depends on the person who faces a situation, how they understand the problem, how they understand themselves, harness and leverage the right attributes within themselves, thinking out of the box in a positive way and handle the problem innovatively. In today's world, adaptation seems slightly tricky, and being a little more creative than others gives individuals a certain edge to succeed. It is "the art of being alive."

A positive mental attitude can catalyze creativity because the mind is focused on strength, opportunities, and inspire creative thinking: Creativity is the high-level intelligence. As the ability to think and produce, creativity requires a certain degree of independence and mental balance, the proper psychological level of inner security, positive attitude, and genuine autonomy. Positivity and negativity reflect the states of mind or heart and they may affect the approach one takes to accomplish a task. To be an innovator, an individual's creative mentality, proactive attitudes, the blend of knowledge and ingenuity, and the right dose of confidence are all valid within the context of his or her creative intelligence. Creative strength comes close to "staying power" or stamina. People who 'think' differently can help to complement different viewpoints, have the ability to bend and try to understand other people's perspective--without losing self, produce a wide range of options, and manage creative solutions.

Positivity enforces resilience; resilience strengthens creativity: Creativity is indispensable because through creativity, the full cycle of imagining, testing the hypothesis, failing, entreating, and improving, new knowledge is developed, and the fresh insight is captured to understand the problem from the different angle, and further solve the old or emerging problems in the better way. Many times, you must be willing to fail a lot and be very persistent to make a successful innovation journey. Resiliency is about bouncing forward- includes bouncing back. It's the ability to respond to change, to recover quickly from setbacks, as well as the capacity to respond to the unexpected in a way that increases gain or minimizes loss. Remember resilient people feel hurt and pain; they have disappointments, they sense failure; they just don't let negative experiences restrict them or scare them away. It’s their positive attitude to overcome the challenge and strengthen their creativity.

Every person has the ability to be creative, just tearing down the mental barriers you have and tapping in your inherent ability. Creativity has many forms and manifestations. By manifesting creativity from an individual endeavor to a collective effort, the horizon of creativity is expanded and the collective creative potential can be unleashed.
