Want to become more creative?  Do what the creative geniuses do.

To be creative it to be schooled in imagination.
 
Dr Robert Root-Bernstein defines creativity as problem solving. No big surprise there perhaps. And what's the 'how"?  How about emulate creative attributes from the greats? Bob shares stories and insights as to what makes us more creative by drawing out creative traits.
 
Creativity is a skillset that can (and should) be learned. It also emerges more readily among people who have broad knowledge and life experience. And of particular value is skill or at least exposure and some experience in the arts.

An ability to integrate information and synthesize it into something strengthens problem solving, develops creativity, improves quality of life experience, confidence building and general well being, not to mention the potential for becoming a significant contributor in nudging the world toward a more joyful and constructive place.

Where to start? Become aware of how you problem solve and do this while trying something new, especially art-related.
