Comment on Trend Watch – Creativity Scores Headed Downward for U.S. #innovation by Michael

The Creativity Crisis will always be a problem in America. To be, so to speak “creative” , one must think out of the box and “unbiased” to be able to use critical thinking in the creative thought process.

P.S. Pretty good for someone who never got past 9th grade?

Unfortunately we live in a society where critical thinking and creativity is shunned. Everyone wants to rehash an old idea rather than create a new one. In America today we create a younger generation of media and game junkies and we wonder why in a “reality entertainment” society that creativity is sent on the back burner? I on the other hand was born into a society that really did not have a lot of room for creativity as I was born with ADHD. I have had to learn and teach myself and overcome the disadvantages in life associated with this handicap. I don’t want pity for my predicament because I do not look at it as a handicap but a way to become more creative to exist in the world I live in. As life goes on I find myself at a greater advantage than those much younger than myself because they become dumber and more stagnate in their life skills and I become more creative and successful in mine.

I absolutely think creativity is important – more important than the number of engineers graduating. Engineers can be hired, but creativity is about culture, about (as you said) being open to the ideas of others as well as generating great ideas.

We need creative solutions to our creativity crisis. How ironic.

Hi,

I went to one of Bala’s seminars years ago – it was great!
I was expecting the typical motivational salestalk, but it was really useful. He gave us the science behind it and actually showed us methods we could use to increase creativity. Most of my colleagues felt the same way and we saw some significant work improvements and also changes in ourselves!
He needs to help more people before the dumbing-down of America becomes irreversible.
