being creative anywhere you find yourself.
let us look into the world of creativity.
the word 'creativity' means the use of imagination or original ideas to create something; inventiveness.
I am a student and a painter, the painting job is a source of livelihood for me
so many persons will think that they are not creative or they cant be creative in what they do, I have come to find out that in whatever space you find yourself creativity will make you stand out from others
while working as a painter with my Boss or whoever I am paired with to see a job done, I have found out that everyday job demands for me to be creative
creativity starts from the scratch.
imagine being placed in a room that is painted with just white and the job description says 'design the room for a military personnel' or 'design the room for children' or whatever the case
creativity is bringing ideas into reality, what I do most times is to first put myself in the shoes of the customer and I always ask myself some basic questions like:
what does the customer want
how do I bring it into reality
has something similar ever been done
when working with someone I open myself to opinions
most times with these few steps I find that I end up making magic for the customer at the end of the day
make sure you enjoy anything you do
Customer satisfaction should be top priority
I strive to become a master of what I do but I have come to find out that in getting there I need to have put myself in the space of masters, I must have read books and I would have practicalized what I learn on a daily and make it a part of me
in whatever space you find yourself always:
relax and always try as much as possible to see the world from different points of view (fresh eyes)
be resourceful
give yourself a deadline for projects and work around it
be positive
build a creative network, see what others are doing and draw out inspiration
be a fan of your own work
