Inspire creativity and growth

“Creativity is the ability to think about a problem or task in a new way, or to use imagination to generate new ideas. It can also involve resourcefulness and craft. Inspiration is a sudden and fleeting mental stimulation that can motivate someone to act in a certain way. It can also be synonymous with opportunity. Creativity is work, resourcefulness and the craft itself. Inspiration is the lightbulb, the mental stimulation that instigates a person to move a certain way. Creativity and inspiration often go hand in hand with each other.”
