Für etwas, das viele von uns lieben und bewundern, ist Kreativität ein weit verbreitetes Missverständnis. Ein großer Fehler besteht darin, Kreativität als etwas zu sehen, mit dem nur einige von uns geboren werden, während sich der Rest von uns zurücklehnt und zusieht, wie ein paar Auserwählte den ganzen Spaß haben. Aber das stimmt in keinster Weise.Kreativität steckt in uns allen. Und wie bei so vielen Dingen, zu denen wir in der Lage sind, liegt sie manchen von uns näher als anderen. Manche von uns brauchen einfach ein bisschen mehr Übung. Und je mehr wir üben, desto besser werden wir. Und je besser wir werden, umso ermutigender und antreibender wird die ganze Sache. Wir können lernen, mit unserem Verstand neue Wege zu beschreiten, Unerwartetes zu entdecken und das, was wir finden, mit Worten, Bildern oder Gefühlen auszudrücken, abstrakt oder konkret, groß oder klein.Dabei entdecken wir, dass ALLES ein kreativer Akt sein kann. Den Essensplan für die nächste Woche aufzustellen oder zur Arbeit zu laufen kann ebenso erfüllend sein, wie einen Roman zu schreiben oder ein Portrait zu malen.
