Salmo aleko wa ra7mt allah we barkatoh.
Did you ask yourself before, “Am I a creative person?”.
Did you ask yourself before, “Why this person is creative?”.
….
Today I have some thoughts regarding this issue. These thoughts may be true, partially true, or totally wrong.
Let’s hear some people talks:
“Do you know, whenever I talked with this person, I feel gap between us; Really a creative person!”.
“I am a failure girl.”
“Stupid people, they are not creative at all”.
“Hi, You are really a creative girl. Thanks so much, el7amd lelah, Haza men fadl Rabby.”
and more…and more…and more…and more…
I am not going to comment on these people. I just wish to share with you, one reason that makes people creative. It is “The Environment that controls us with its rules.”
I believe that any person under certain field/job, is creative because of the environment rules. I will try to show that through some examples.
EX.1) Berlitz English Course.
Berlitz is an organization that offers English courses for people to improve their skills(speaking+listening). One of the most important rules of Berlitz is that: “Any word in the class out of mouth of a teacher or a student, MUST be in English.”
Student: Wow, I know Arabic only, How come I will listen to English all the time!!!
Old person @ Berlitz may have this solution: There is only one way to do that, try to find someway to express your self.
Do you know to accept this job, what should you be? you should be creative, and if not yet, you should learn how to be.
Come and see our teacher @ Berlitz course, Mrs.Shaimaa . Wow, really creative person, When she picks a new word, every thing in her express that word; her move, hands, sound, face and body and also the nice pictures she draws. Really she is a brilliant and keeps us focus, learn and have fun with her fantastic soft skills.
Imagine for a while if this rule does not exist. Simply, anyone know English will come and taught us. I think you may remember English lessons in all of our academic year.
Doctor: “Dog ya3ni kalb/ Apple ya3ni tofa7a, far5a ya3ni chicken: 3eed warya bysot 3aly”
Sure there is a big difference, Berlitz pushes this person to be creative; if she must express some thing complex, she expresses it once, if no one understands, she thinks, and expresses it again in different method, some people understand and some do not, she tries to draw and act and do every thing possible, and finally all people understand. I will let for my reader his judgment on Berlitz idea, and on its effect on teacher & students.
In next posts I will give another 2 examples, wait & see.
