“Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.”
― Lao Tzu

Good Luck to all Contenders

What is the Creativity Contest all about?

---

In short: It is simply about generating a valuable entry based on the word associated with each round.
The entry/comment with the most upvotes wins.

In depth: The idea is to stimulate and engage steemians in creative work through rewards and competition. My assumption is that larger the reward gets the more challenging it becomes to win which will lead to a greater level of competition therefore higher quality of work being submitted.

The Creativity Contest could possibly:

• Encourage differentiation
• Push steemians to avoid complacency
• Help Forming unexpected partnerships, as the competition allows people to cooperate and work on an entry/comment.
• Provide a nest for mutual learning, as steemians will have the chance to learn and get inspired by the many ways of approaching self-expression.
• Lead to highly Imaginative work, as competition gets rougher.

How to enter the contest?

Let's say Mr. Herbert Hoover wants to enter Round #37 and the word associated with it is "Competition"

All he has to do is represent the meaning of the word in an original entry/comment (100% his work and creation)

• He can write a definition of the word (no plagiarism)
• He can post a video in which he discusses the meaning of the word
• Any Art form that could symbolize and represent the word (humor, painting, drawing, music..)
• He can write a short story
• He can discuss the origin of the word
• Discuss its meaning philosophically
• Literally anything goes as long as it is his original work

Mr. Hoover decided to share what he thinks about "Competition" in a short sentence
and before entering his post he made sure to use this format:
