creative = advertiser? Nahhhhh!
¿creative monopoly = artists, musicians, performers, etc? NOOOOOOO!
… well, we all thought that. But no.
Today we know that creativity, the tWist, is a skill that can be developed. Don’t you believe me? Well, take a minute to remember your childhood:
Who was not a daydreamer back then? Who used to build stuff? What happened then? Simple, social reality and the education system, which are two sides of one coin, are designed to castrate these skills, because tWisting stuff is “dangerous”.
Creativity is the highest Human expression that we know of. It is not an accident that peformers achieve celebrity status; they materialize the ideal of creation, they create characters, people and fantasies. This grows on us unconsciously when we stop to think that one of the things that were tatooed in our heads is that the Maximum Creator is the Guy Upstairs, right? And, why do we loose our heads when we are near a celebrity? We invest time, energy on them… because not very deep inside us, that is what most of us aspire to become. Creativity is one of those common-denominator topics, from different perspectives, but we either shun or praise creative people.
Then, we all admire people who tWist the ordinary because we all somehow wish we were creative people. Truth is that we all have the dormant skill of tWisting, in different proportions of course. So, if the tool is there, what happens if I exercise it a little bit? What if I excercise it a “very lot”?
The point is that now you know that we can all tWist our reality, and generally speaking, to do that, we need:
Big guts. An idea that we really love. A method. Discipline. Tolerance to failure. Time.
Thanks for reading the tWistVox.
