creative, innovative, interesting ideas

Creativity is something I don't really have. Yes, some people, I have to admit modestly, think that I possess a certain level of creativity. They often let me handle the creative aspect of things when we are given projects or jobs to carry out. I do what I can do best, bluff my way through the end of the project.

Well, seriously, personally I think I am not creative. I still find it not easy to come up with ideas, not to mention new ones. I struggle to carry out projects as my create juices will just not flow. Given time to search on ideas, I will browse and think and sit on that particular idea for a while, trying to catch any impression that I can get. Then it's innovation time. Doing something about it, tweaking the idea a little, to make it mine.

Honing this skill takes time too. Innovation comes hand in hand with creativity. Maybe you are not creative, but being innovative can safe your skin sometimes. So I do take note and collect ideas as I come across them. And of course, I do try my best to store them, although I think they that they will all be lost in the greying jungle of mine. Here is another creative idea I stumbled upon during my daily exercise routine, net-surfing :

It is a very interesting photography concept and I foresee that I would transform myself in due time to a Cheshire-similar creature and try this out. An idea with lots of potential to be innovated by an un-creative mind. Wish I had thought about doing this before this guy did it, but then again, it's alright, I guess. It is just another interesting way of presenting yourself, all about in this big, wide world.
