I was asked a question recently that was so simple yet so profound and I think it goes to the very heart of what we think about creativity and ideas. I think most of us tend to lump both together and interchange the words at will.
The question that I was asked was, "How does creativity and ideas differ?"
How would you answer that question? Do you think there is a difference? I do and my answer is:
When I think about creativity I think of a mindset that we all possess or a way of being - I think you are creative by the things that you do and how you do them.
Ideas, on the other hand, are tangible and can be shaped and developed into physical reality by the actions you take.
Think about that for a moment....
