“Creativity is permitted within the parameters of the guidance of licensed professionals whose duty it is to make sure we don’t get too wacky with our ideas or stray very far from the boundaries of normalcy.” - Terry Everton.
the definition of creativity is:
“the use of the imagination or original ideas to create something innovative.”
or
“the ability to transcend traditional ideas, rules, patterns, and relationships, and generate meaningful new ideas, forms, methods, interpretations.”
this definition clearly captures that creativity is about grappling something that is stagnant and encumbered by tradition, morphing and adding value.
being creative is about bringing new solutions to old problems, fresh perspectives and aha moments. It’s about new connections. it’s the essential component of innovation. heck it’s really about all things new. and who is the one that makes all things new? jesus.
so why are we confining our creativity to the standards of old? how contradictory. let’s unleash ourselves from what’s deemed “normal”, partner with jesus and bring about a creative revolution like the world has never seen!!
