Question

Think of an incident in his or her past where they experienced a block to their creative abilities.

Answer 1

Barriers to creative thinking:

• Blocks to creative abilities are a common happening which almost everyone pass through.
• Creative abilities are simply a thought of good ideas, something outside the blocks.
• There are many barriers to such creative thinking. First and the foremost is formal education.
• You heard that right, formal education works on the concept of ‘only one correct answer.’ That’s simply a hurdle to one’s creative thinking.
• What if the other answer is more appropriate than the former one which is being taught on since decades.
• Apart from this, following rules is something which doesn’t allow a person to think beyond normal/average thinking.
