Creative thinking
Introduction
Creative thinking is about exploring new ideas, challenging the usual way of doingthings, and embracing innovation. While we are all naturally creative, society oftensteers people toward structure and routine, making it easy to lose that creativespark. Yet, creativity is what drives progress. It helps individuals think independentlyand open new opportunities that might have otherwise gone unnoticed. Whether inwork or daily life, creative thinking leads to fresh perspectives, betterproblem-solving, and a deeper sense of fulfilment.Being creative means constantly looking for new ways to improve, rather than gettingstuck in the same patterns. In many workplaces tasks are done the same way foryears simply because "that’s how it’s always been", but real innovation happenswhen people stay open to new ideas and aren’t afraid to experiment. Not every newidea will be a breakthrough, but without testing them, no one will ever know.
