Creativity and lifestyle

Creativity is the essential characteristic of any human being.This creativity draws the most clear demarcation between subhuman-animals and the human beings.Every individual human being essentially possess/show creativity in one way or the other.
      some people show very little amount of creativity,which is considered as negligible,because these are not clearly felt by others;where as others show considerable amount of creativity and imagination.These two groups of people have almost heaven and hell difference  between them.
      The former group(gr1) is generally very less imaginative & they can face the reality as it appear to them without remaining plunged into there own world of imagination,which is at the root of creativity.
      In the case of the latter group(gr2) of people,they generally remain in there own world of imagination and thought process being less concerned to the real world.As a result they some times,while they remain engrossed most deeply in there thoughts,do deeds that are not familiar to the gr1 people or do not do things, that are generally done by the gr1 people!
         As a result these two groups are clearly distinguished from each other.Here the gr1 people  regard the gr2 people as eccentric,mad,mentally disordered or perverted,but that is never the case-it is just the 'lay man' concept!
        In this context we can easily recall the story  regarding the conversation between Sir Isaac Newton and the carpenter,where Newton told the carpenter to make a small hole for his little cat and a large hole for his big pet cat! From this story should Newton be called as a mentally disordered person?The answer is certainly not.
          Great thinker both in the fields of science and arts ,I think, are deeply engaged in there thoughts resulting in a trance like state,where they can feel the reality in its  totality but there interaction with the exterior is poor and there interpretation of the reality is intuitively different,which actually leads them to there creation/invention.
        These gr2 people,owing to there different point of view,have a different lifestyle pattern which does not match with that of the gr1 people.

  2. So far my knowledge is concerned,I can not tell how to boost one's creativity!Every one has some amount of creativity.And again if all people have creativity of same quality & quantity,there would be,probably,imbalance & the society will be damaged...may be the correct choice of nature!
