How to Become Creative. How the Brain Develops
Ignorance of one's own body does not relieve us of consequences. Just as ignorance of the law does not absolve us from responsibility.
Every writer wants to be considered creative. Although I am not a writer, I became interested in the question of creativity. When I started reading what some of the coaches offered to do, I laughed for a long time.
So that you understand why it became so funny to me, I will give an example. It turns out that in order to develop creativity in yourself, you need:
- Do everyday things with the other hand.
- Put your hands in front of you and do different manipulations with your fingers.
- Work in a coffee house (As studies show, the noise level in a coffee house contributes to creative thinking).
- Do physical exercises.
- Less know, more guess (it is necessary for the mind to wander, not think).
This is a small part of what you are offered to do by experienced psychologists and coaches who earn a lot of money on this slag. If you do not know how your body is arranged, you can pay a lot of money for such courses, which do not lead to anything useful.
How to actually develop your brain.
In order to understand this, it is necessary to understand how the brain is arranged. The composition of the brain, if you do not remember from the course of anatomy, you can look at any other site. We are more interested in the functionality of the brain.
The brain is divided into sections. Each area of
the brain is responsible for its functions. You've probably heard that our brain works only 4%. This is because when we are engaged in some kind of work, those parts of the brain that are responsible for those functions are involved. In those areas, food rises, that is, blood flow.
For example, when we do something with our hands, we use the sites responsible for coordinating the movements of the hands. If you want to develop creativity in yourself, doing manipulations with hands, then you will develop only those areas that are in charge of hands.
Before answering the question of how to develop your brain or creativity, you need to ask yourself: Which part of the brain do I want to develop?
If you want to be a successful trader - trade, artist - draw, a singer - sing. There is no other way. You will not become an excellent shooter or racer, playing computer games. You will become an excellent player.
