My Definition of Creativity



What is Creativity?
            Creativity is the ability to come up with brand new ideas that no one else has thought of yet and is being able to come up with a completely new idea no matter how radical or irrational it may be. Someone is creative when they have enough imagination to come up with an idea that no one has thought of before or being able to improve on something that someone has created before them. In order for someone to be considered creative, they have to be able to think outside the box and have enough imagination to continue creating something even if the public doubts you. Creativity is inside of a person and is only opened when a person thinks of a radical idea or an improvement on an old idea.
            When people try to recreate something that has already been invented or has already been perfected, they are no longer considered to be creative. Once people start to try and take something that was already perfected and improve it, they no longer have creativity; they now are considered copiers and lack the creativity that is needed to improve the things that have already been created. Another way that people lose creativity is when they take an idea and try to replace little things within the idea or product to try and call it their own. This is not considered creativity, but is considered to be a fake because they don’t come up with their own ideas; they just try and claim it to be their own so that they get the credit that they don’t deserve.
            Creativity is being able to come up with either their own idea or to change an original idea to become a completely different object.  People that have more creativity tend to be more popular than people that copy others and try to change little aspects and call it their own. This is why people who have more creativity tend to make more money in the real world than people who copy.
