How to be creative.

To begin with,  some people believe  that creativity is a skill that we can work on with time, training, and effort. To my mind, there are many areas we can focus on to improve our overall creativity. Engage in creative exercises like reading, writing, and listening to music to sharpen your creativity. Learn as much as possible and open ourselves up to new ideas and experiences. Make lifestyle changes like walking more, exercising regularly, and getting more sleep to give our  brain the boost it needs to increase your creative skills.

Anyway, sometimes our routine live takes control under our feelings and willings. So, it’s hard,  but if you want to live your happy life, you should try to break this wall of negative thoughts and every day things and be inspired of the world’s opportunities.

Firstly, one of the best way to feel the creativity is getting relaxed – take a moment to do something that brings you joy, that centers you. Meditate, take a walk, do something that puts you in a good mood, write a diary – writing down your thoughts.

Secondly, lots of people use such practice as
giving gratitude.  Thinking about all things you are grateful for produces a positive energy flow and vibration. As you feel the love in your heart for all the wonderful blessings and gifts in your life, you will instantly relax and feel all warm and fuzzy inside. In that moment of warmth and love, you are open to creative energy.

Also , the good thing that you may do is tickle your Imagination – Imagination is highly visual. Try closing your eyes, and imagine that you are in a scene, any scene. I should mention that you should practice seeing the details of your environment in this scene. See the colours, the textures, touch something. And ask to your self : What does it feel like? What do you hear? This makes you more relaxed and gives you gratitude.

All in all, the science of creativity is relatively new. Until the Enlightenment, acts of imagination were always equated with higher powers. Being creative meant channeling the muses, giving voice to the gods. Even in modern times, scientists have paid little attention to the sources of creativity.

And the last thing: If you think some people are just born that way, think again. Experts say we all have a wellspring of creative energy. The secret is how to tap it.

I want to start with the question. “What is the most important thing in our life?” And of course there are a lot. However , I believe that 99% of people will agree with me , that it is Love. We can’t imagine our life without feelings. Being in love is amazing and everyone wants to feel it every day.  

Unfortunately, being in love means not just happiness, there is also a big fear of a breaking heart. So, some people, that were hurting in the past, afraid to fall in love again. 

There are tips how to be in love: 

• Ask yourself if you ever put up walls to avoid getting hurt.  Falling in love involves making yourself vulnerable, and understanding your defenses is the first step to lowering them. Try to be honest with yourself, and remember that everyone has insecurities and fears.
• Remember that no one’s perfect, and accept yourself for who you are. Embracing yourself can help make it easier to open up to a romantic partner and fall in love with them.
• Take a risk! Loving someone who doesn’t love you back hurts, but it’s something everyone experiences. You can move on from pain, even if it seems impossible in the moment. However, you’ll miss out on everything great about being in love if you never let yourself take the risk.
• If you’re not already dating someone, try to have conversations with new people. You may try a new hobby to meet people with the same interests as you. So, be variegated! 

All in all, people should remember that love is the thing that makes sense of our life! Be risky, smart, love yourself! Be open for new adventures and people! Don’t run away from the feelings. It’s not that hard to be happy. 

What top students should do : 

1. Get Organized:  making a plan for what you are  going to do and when you going to do it will make sure you're always ahead of the curve -literally. 
2. Sleep:  don't underestimate the importance of those eight hours every night.  Getting a good night's rest will sharpen your focus and improve your working memory.
3. Set a schedule: top students should find a schedule that works for them and stick to it. 
4. Take notes: taking notes will not only keep you more engaged during class, but will also help you narrow down what you need to study when exam time rolls around. 
5. Manage the  study space: find a place that will maximize the  productivity. Look for places away from the television and other distractions. Whether it's a local library or just a place somewhere outside. So, take away the telephones and computers!  

What top students shouldn’t do: 

1. Stay up all night working: you may think that if you spend all night for studying , it will give you good results. However these hours are thoroughly horrible and definitely don’t produce good work.
2. Sit on social networking sites while studying: sitting  on Facebook or Instagram might seem like way to make working less stressful and more fun, but it’ll make it harder to focus and really think through a problem.
3. Stress out when they fail: even the best students mess up. Don’t let one bad grade dishearten you.
4. Work in a  bedroom: working in your room always seems like a great idea at first,  but actually it’s a way to unproductive work. 
5. Plan to work right up to a deadline: you end up working just as hard as everyone else, but later, and often more frantically.

Do schools kill creativity?

Our society is based on a well-established system.  Our life has special  stages: kindergarten, school, institute, work. Education is also a complex system with certain rules.
Sometimes it seems that our life is a test.  And there is no place for mistakes.
Adults afraid to make a mistake, they don’t like be risky.  We always say “ a mistake” when someone does something differently, against the system.
However, sometimes “mistakes” can be just a creativity . In another word new way  of solving problems.

Going deeper in roots, we may guess that our creativity “dies” at school.
Teachers often have biases against creative students, fearing that creativity in the classroom will be disruptive. They devalue creative personality attributes such as risk taking, impulsivity and independence. They inhibit creativity by focusing on the reproduction of knowledge and obedience in class.

So, on the basis of this, childish bravery and creativity are “clamped” into the framework of the system.

Even so , people have started to understand that educational system needs to be renewed.
And how can creativity be cultivated in schools ?
There are some tips:

- For instance, teachers may focus less on the reproduction of information and more on critical thinking and problem solving.
- Curate activities that transcend traditional disciplinary boundaries can be organized .  For example: painting murals that depict biological food chains, acting out plays about historical events, or writing poems about the Space.  The world doesn’t come carved up into different subject areas. Our culture tells us these disciplinary boundaries are real and our thinking becomes trapped in them.
- Also, some lessons can be turned into challenges: students should make groups and solve the creative problems. This provides time and space to foster the forging of new connections that is so important for  creativity.

All in all, the world changes. And all systems should be changed too. People need to become more openminded and creativity in school is the best way for start!
