7 Reasons Why You Have Lost Your Creativity
By Joel on November 11, 2012 ![]() We here at Addicted2Success, see this as a HUGE problemo and have therefore decided to research and share with you, the 7 Reasons Why You Have Lost Your Creativity, so that you may be able to pin point your vice and get the creative juices pumping out again. Why You Have Lost Your Creativity 1. You Grew Up! ![]() Somewhere along the way, we become more rational, even jaded sometimes, about the world. Those few among us who stay creative as adults often exhibit a child-like spirit. If you walk into the office of creative types like graphic artists, website designers, engineers, and programmers, it is very likely that you find toys around. Think about Google, a company known for hiring creative individuals. They turn their their workspace into a playground of sorts with large shiny slides to carry you in kid-like fashion from one floor to the next and they have bean bags for chairs in some of their boardrooms. 2. Your Need To ‘Make Money’ May Have Squelched Your Creative Side ![]() Those young adults who rebel and become musicians and artists may hear things like, “When are you going to get a real job?” even if they are working 60 hours a week! If you follow these same people into their thirties and forties, most of the time you’ll find that they finally give in too and go and get a “real job” to support themselves and their family. 3. Pharmaceuticals Are Zapping Our Creativity ![]() Creativity altering and behavior modifying pharmaceuticals are also given to those individuals who are considered bi-polar, manic, or depressed. Then there are those individuals who have Asperger’s Syndrome or so called “personality disorders” who are given pharmaceuticals that crush creativity too. Some of the most famous creative individuals that have ever lived are thought to have had Asperger’s Syndrome, bouts of depression, mania, ADD, and bi-polarism. Think what we would have lost if Mozart or Van Gogh would have been given pharmaceuticals to subdue their creativity! 4. You May Not Be Getting Enough Sleep or the Right Kind Of Sleep ![]() 5. You May Be Vegging Out In Front Of the TV Too Much ![]() Too much TV stifles creativity. 6. You May Be Just Too Darn Tired! ![]() Under these circumstances, most people find it very difficult to even think about being creative. 7. Standardized Tests, Stereotyping, and One Correct Answer ![]() We have created a society that is taught from a young age to zero in on one way of thinking about each issue and topic. This squelches creative ideas. |
