Hi Paul,
a. I’m no expert but I do want you to see that you are capable of thinking creatively.
b. People sometimes talk about ‘thinking outside the box’ – thinking in a different way – but actually, the only box is the way we’ve been brought up to see problems.
c. If you tell yourself you’re not creative, you’ll easily start to believe it. So, the first thing to do is: stop thinking like that!
d. A central obstacle to our ability to think outside the box is the assumption that there must always be a right answer to a question or problem. That limits creative thinking.
e. I read your post and can completely relate to it. You say “I’m not a creative person”. Look – everyone’s creative! Denying your creativity is terrible.
So, try to stop seeing things as ‘right’ or ‘wrong’.
I hope these ideas help.
Sarah.
