| Creativity and freedom breathes | | 2008-07-03 06:13:00 | | They had a billing of Rs.23 crores last fiscal. Just last month they bagged the key account of Addo Battery. Says Das, “Addo Battery has a footprint all over India. As part of our strategy to compete against Exide, we have roped in Kapil Dev as the brand ambassador as he has a lot of mass appeal and since the product is performance led.” Not one to follow tradition, the agency never thinks twice before taking on clients from off beat sectors too. One of its client is an organic store based in southern India called 24 Letter Mantra, “We undertook a 360 degree marketing technique in order to give shape to the store. Right from the name, logo, shop design and communication strategy – everything has been conceptualised by us.” Little wonder that clients don’t treat the agency as a vendor, but as a partner, where there is no room for dictating terms or domination by either side. With creativity as its core competence, the agency is aptly summed up as a ‘circle of imagination | | By: IIPM-World | | |

It had been a long time since we met.The best way to unleash the creativity juice is to really step out of the usual environment and to engage in a meaningful and constructive conversation. Recall when you had a conversation with someone and you just built an idea on top of an idea smoothly. Yes! That's the feeling I'm talking about.Ideas spurned out as we chatted.

| MBA Dissertation: Managing Creativity And Innovation | | 2008-06-02 00:32:00 | | Consider the following points while writing a theses on Managing Creativity and Innovation. There are a number of critical issues to master in the art of creativity and innovation management:• What are the critical differences between creativity and innovation? Are different competencies required?• Do "creative people" have common characteristics and, if so, what are they? Are they stable across situations?• Can creativity be learned and developed or is it a special gift? Why is it that some people just are more creative?• Why is motivation more important than nature or nurture? How can it be enhanced, measured and managed?• Blocks and unlocking. Organisational culture. We can all be more creative, so what is stopping us? What properties of an organisational culture cultivate productivity?• What properties of an organisational structure foster creativity and innovation?

| | Echad, The Cradle Of Creativity | | 2008-03-08 16:16:00 | | א' באדר ב' תשס"חRaven 2Rosh Chodesh Adar IICradle from Mar: 10Gem54 to Plu: 13Leo42 to Nep: 16Lib49 to Jup: 21Sag47In my natal chart, there is an astrological aspect called a Cradle. A Cradle is:An aspect configuration consisting of two planets in an opposition aspect. There are two more planets, each forming a trine aspect to one side of the opposition and a sextile to the other.In effect, there are two Wedge configurations. In a Wedge, the apex planet (that trines and sextiles the opposed planets) provides a release or relief point for the stress of the opposition. The apex planet can be a source of great creativity.Specifically in my natal chart, the apical planets are Pluto/Geut and Neptune:Pluto/Malchut - Geut (גאות), with a gematria of 410, digit sum 5Neptune, 17 times the mass of Earth - Yesod, tov (טוב), gematria 17, digit sum 8The sum of the digit sums which describe the source of the creativity springing forth from my Cradle is 13, Echad (אחד). | | By: Walking On Fire | | |

| | | | | Paper: Could there be a darwinian account of human creativity? | | 2007-12-29 19:47:09 | | In a new paper, philosopher Daniel Dennett writes: "Weaver birds create intricate nests; sculptors and other artists and artisans also create intricate, ingenious constructions out of similar materials. The products may look similar, and outwardly the creative processes that create those processes may look similar, but there are surely large and important differences between them. What are they, and how important are they?

| | 7 Tips And Exercises To Boost Your Creativity: Follow A Few Steps & Strategies To Solve Any Problem | | 2007-12-21 23:37:00 | | by: Lucretia TorvaSo, you have a problem or projects that has you stumped? Or you are not quite satisfied with some of your solutions? Try these ideas:1.Gather Information: you might not have enough information about your project/problem to come up with a great creative solution. Exercise: Go to a source of information you don’t typically use. When is the last time you went to a library? Is there a government agency that has related information? How about a local community college, is there an instructor that teaches something connected to your subject? Clerks at bookstores are often very helpful. There may be trade magazines addressing your area of interest.2. Be Active: yes, you read correctly. Your brain uses a lot of oxygen and does not work well when undernourished. Exercise: Go do something active and FUN! This will get the blood flowing and when you have fun, your creative juices start flowing. Do something that you haven’t done in long time: dance, roller skate, hike, ride | | By: PERSONALITY DEVELOPMENT | SELF IMPROVEMENT | BODYN | | |

| | Everyone Has Creativity | | 2007-09-10 15:09:00 | | Everyone has creativity. To get in touch with new energy in you, try one of the following exercises. Action board—use a large bulletin board to post 3x5 index cards for the 5 main categories of your life. You may wish to use general categories; such as goals, deadlines, dreams, etc. of be more specific, such as marketing, sales, etc. Using different colored 3x5 cards may help you to see the categories more easily. Every Sunday evening or another evening of your choice, review your boards and update them for the upcoming week/month/year depending on your system. This update will go quickly and will give you a clear, concise review of where you are and where you are going. This will lead to greater confidence. Remember if you fail to plan, you are planning to fail. Begin keeping a creative basket—pretend you are 10 years old or ask a young friend and/or family member to help you. Take a large basket with a handle and put all the things in it you might enjoy using to create a new project. You may include sequins, glitter, paste, colored pens, watercolors, sketch pads. You may use these materials to play with often as way to express your creativity. Love Jar—collect a glass or clear plastic jar. Using bright construction paper, cut into strips. On the strips of paper, write down short suggestions for yourself of ways you can feel greater love in your life. These activities will also add new confidence skills. For example: Clean out a cupboard or drawer today. Take a warm bubble bath. Explore a new lake or a nature retreat. Make a list of 15 of your strengths and put it in your wallet Create a bulletin board of special cards others have sent to you or go to a card store and pick out 5-10 cards that you really love. Make a picture wall of your favorite picture. Make a cassette tape of your favorite inspirational quotations. Trade skills with a friend to explore new ways of doing things. Choose a new hobby or improve on an older one. Have company for dinner and create an original menu. Begin keeping a loose-leaf notebook I call my “life-book”. The 5x8 size is convenient. I keep everything I might need to know in the immediate future. I also keep an index-sized Rolodex but the lifebook goes everywhere with me. It is a great companion when you’re remodeling or moving. You may have a companion on your computer. Play is essential everyday for everyone. Plan to play everyday. The time you allot to play will repay you in increased productivity. Be sure to set time limits for play so that you don’t use play to prolong procrastination for some work you need to do. | | By: Changemaker: Healing Mind, Body and Soul | | |
| | Changemaker Creativity Books | | 2007-09-04 12:57:00 | | The Changemaker Library has been divided into eight categories. These are creativity, exercise, health, meditation, peace of mind, personal development, spiritual direction, and stress reduction. A few of the books have been recommended for more than one category. Creativity is the secret to being in our passion. We are in our "flow" when we are working and time seems to disappear. Joy can't be discovered by the mind. Joy happens when our total being--thoughts, words, feelings--are all focused at the same time. Mihaly Csikszentmihaly states that flow has the following components: 1. Usually occurs when we confront tasks we have a chance of completing2. We must be able to concentrate on what we are doing.3. Concentration is usually possible because the task undertaken has clear goals and provides immediate feedback..4. One acts with a deep but effortless involvement that removes awareness of the worries and frustrations of everyday life.5. Enjoyable experiences allow people to exercise a sense of control over their actions.6. Concern for the self disappears, yet paradoxically the sense of self emerges stronger after the flow experience is over. 7. The sense of the duration of time is altered; hours pass by in minutes. Also to create harmony in whatever one does is the last task the flow theory presents. Athletes call this phenomenon being in the "zone". The Changemaker Library recommended these books for creativity: The Artist’s Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity Julia Cameron ISBN 0-87477-694-5 Fingerpainting on the Moon: Writing and Creativity as a Path to Freedom Peter Levitt ISBN 0-609-61048-1 Prosperity Pie: How to Relax About Money and Everything Else SARK ISBN 0-7432-2920-7 The Vein of Gold: A Journey to Your Creative Heart (Companion to The Artist’s Way) Julia Cameron ISBN 0-87477-836-0 | | By: Changemaker: Healing Mind, Body and Soul | | |

It has been a hell of a long week. Seriously, I think it was longer than the past 16 years of my life combined. If it had gotten any longer it would’ve been forced to expand into a second dimension of time.
I actually don’t remember what happened since the SATs last Saturday. I know this morning I was Ping’s accompanist at a competition at a church in Horseheads, where the main door was hidden away in the back and no one had the key until someone Googled the pastor to get her phone number.
And I vaguely recall an awards ceremony and some teas and a lot of heat. Surely there’s been more than that in a whole seven days? Argh. I’m tired.
I’m dying for this year to end, and I’m going to die when it ends. It feels inevitable. I need some kind of deus ex machina here. Maybe Zeus will come down and smite the school– and the New York State Board of Regents– so I don’t have to take | | By: Circadian Rhythms | | |
| | Creativity For Life | | 2007-04-30 08:58:00 | | The phrase "creativity for life" means at least three different things.One. Creativity can permeate a life: that a person can be creative in the way that she handles her job, solves problems around the house, or takes in a sunset. She manifests the qualities of a creative person, like imagination, resourcefulness, self-direction, and so on, and shines them like a beacon on whatever she thinks about or tackles. One shorthand moniker for this is that she is "everyday creative" or that she is engaged in "artful living."Two. "Creativity for life" is that people who love things like art, music, literature, science, and, more broadly, smart things, gorgeous things, and evocative things, want them in their life. They do not want a life devoid of foreign movies, intellectual puzzles, or natural beauty. They love it that bookstores, museums, and concert halls exist and they love it that they can fill their living space and their spare time with art. Our shorthand for this is "an art-filled life | | By: Inspirations and Creative Thoughts | | |
| | Creativity with pressed flowers | | 2007-04-30 07:00:00 | | Casper star tribuneYou never know when you might want to press some flowers. The pressed blooms, leaves and stems can then be used to “paint” pictures and cards for any occasion.
Flower pressing is everything that is wonderful in the garden: planning, planting, gathering, preserving, sharing.
The materials and equipment needed are simple. You can make a flower press with two pieces of wood, large screws and blotter paper. Or you can employ an old telephone book... | | By: The Flower Expert - Flowers Encyclopedia | | |

But after graduation, she wanted to return home to Michigan. She worked on interiorscapes and did landscaping but when her mother and stepfather offered financial backing to open her own shop, she couldn't resist. She found herself a business owner at 23 years old. Having a horticulture degree gives her an edge.

He was a hurting unit when he came home Friday.I've decided I want to try making stitch markers & jewelry. I'm still waiting for a tool kit, but I managed to make one (yes, ONE!) stitch marker and a couple of bracelets for the girls. I didn't get a photo of the bracelets before they went off to school this morning, but I'll get one later. Meanwhile, here's the lone stitch marker:I've been working on Mark's sweater exclusively. I want to get it done for him while it's still winter!
