Speaking of which&#8230;Duncan Wardle asks in his 2018 TEDxAUK talk the question &#8220;When does your creativity flourish?&#8221; and describes a variety of &#8220;brain states&#8221; which explain our creativity behaviors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One common theme in response to this &#8220;When?&#8221; question is when we are calm and relaxed. This is consistent with our YCISL approach through positivity and intrinsic motivation. The &#8220;door&#8221; to creativity is typically shut tight when we are stressed or feeling negative. And just being in a particular place that virtually reminds us of stress or negativity can have that stifling effect making the &#8220;when&#8221; seem like never.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the YCISL, we have a variety of training methods to access our creative energy:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>seek creative flow and avoid pre-mature self-editing<\/li><li>learn to frame the problem in different ways<\/li><li>set a cyclic rhythm between divergent and convergent thinking<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With these skills, we should have more control on the question of &#8220;when do find creative ideas?&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m working on a YCISL White Paper currently on the question &#8220;Where is your creativity?&#8221; so that we can feel more secure by finding our own creativity and having it at the ready for when we need it.
