The Creative Mind Developing a creative mind involves more than just book learning in the traditional academic manner. We are more than just a brain on legs. Since the Industrial Revolution, education has been formulated to train people to be uniform, behave under orders and knuckle down to work. Anyone who shows a flare for creative thinking will often get constrained by the system. Creativity involves using the whole brain and body, not just the logical, left hand side. Activities such as dancing, painting and music help to develop the creative whole brain. Mathematics and Science are very useful but it is of interest that many mathematicians are also talented musicians. The ability to make leaps of learning with new connections is enhanced by the brain being stimulated in a number of ways. The thinking that only academic study has worth has permeated our Western culture. But if we look at the history of humanity many of our great achievements have come from our architects, artists, musicians, and intelligent people who are divergent thinkers. Maybe we would all benefit from dancing and making music everyday.
