A New Definition of Creativity: Propensity or Desire to Create

Creativity isn’t this superpower you’re born with (or not). Creativity is having the DESIRE or the motivation to CREATE and make stuff!

Also, creativity is something which can be trained (like our muscles)!

Why I like this new definition

I personally like this new definition of creativity because it means:

Creativity is open for everyone.

I believe in democratic forms of art-creation. I love the notion that ANYONE AND EVERYONE can become an artist (or uncover their own inner-artist/child). We are all born as artists, but as we get older, the artist is beaten out of us.

Why create?

To me, the best way to live is that of a creator.

The more I create, the happier I am.

Why? When I create something, I feel more. I feel more powerful and epic. And the more I create, the more exciting and interesting I find life.

Also, the desire to create means:

I desire to live as long as I can in order to continue creating.

Not just creating art. Creating ideas. Creating images. Creating my (future) children.
