LEARN - CREATE - LEAD

Creativity while learning makes me feel like I’m the leader, it makes me feel empowered, it makes me feel like I can make it how I want, I think this is good in learning because people feel intimidated or more pressured when they are told to be creative, you can’t be told to do something creative, then it makes creativity contrived. Creativity is fun, inspiring, strengthening. It makes you feel amazing once you create something all by yourself. Creativity can’t be enforced. Sometimes people get pressured, they become intimidated, usually when they are forced to be creative, and they will steal creativity from someone else, they will take part of that person’s creativity and use it like their own, this is when creativity becomes about power. I think to keep creativity striving in learning people will have to have time, and they will have to feel good about what they are doing, they can’t be under pressure or under stress, that makes creativity hard, it makes it unhappy it needs to be something you want to do, something you look forward to doing, that way people want to do it. I consider myself quite creative, though I have been under stress and pressure before when I have had to be creative and it was gross, I felt trapped, I felt like a prisoner who has to bail themselves out with their own work, only then can they be free. I think creativity in learning is a blessing, something powerful, something beautiful.
