Creativity does not just happen. It involves courages, efforts and hard works. People who tries to be creative will face problems, failures and countless miseries. Human beings are born lazy and are therefore difficult to find many venturing into these unfamiliar areas.
Even when there is a need to do it, we will first rely on those who have gone through it to provide the necessary assistance and guidance. We are born with an instinct to stay away from failures or troubles. For most of us, that is the prerequisite for our survival.

Creativity is a matter of learning to consider multiple solutions, and thinking through a number of outcomes.

Instead of simply saying something won’t work, a creative person will usually try to figure out a way to make it work.

And creativity isn’t something you have to be born with – it’s a skill, just like math or reading. And it’s something every child can learn.

When your kids are ready to give up on a project, teach them to look at it from a different angle. Say to them: “What would happen if we tried it this way?”

Then, if that does not work, help them try something else.
The key is to think outside the box and to teach your kids to do the same.
