CREATIVITY
It is said that creativity comes when we are working on something, but is this true? From my point of view, I think it depends on each person since I have felt stimulated to do things in different circumstances.
It has happened to me that maybe I am preparing my lunch or listening to music and suddenly a wonderful idea comes to my mind, in these cases, neither of the two activities is considered work. Only the first one becomes work when we have the responsibility of a family.
Maybe people who say this mean that creativity arises when we are motivated by something. It is difficult to feel like doing something while we feel sad and if we don't feel like doing anything it is in turn complicated for inspiration to come to us.
On the other hand, I have also read that creativity has to be worked as if it were a muscle because the more we do it, the more often it appears and I completely agree with this. I have realized that the most difficult step is the first one and that once I take it the rest is a little easier.
But this is not all, if we are supposed to work it like a muscle we must also understand that we need breaks or the fatigue will lead us to a creative block from which it is very difficult to get out.
