Creative Solutions to Life’s
Challenges
“I
believe that what we often call survival skills is simply creativity at work.” Everything
that we do in life is part of creative and the way you manage them and do is
the actual creative. I think that this story is a great story to listen. It
also talks about the reality and the real actions that we have to do in certain
times to overcome them and part of it is the creativity. In every problem there
is always a way to solve or fix being creative is one of them. It reminds of me
that when I was in high school I was taking a hard class as I think. It was Pre-calculus
class, where they give you a simple numbers and you got to make graph or solve
the problem or solution. I but my mind that I can do this class if I work hard,
as “ hard work pays off” means everything you try hard you always get it or
win.
I used to sleep lately at night, because I was
looking at the book all night and studying hard to succeed this class and
finally I passed and got B. the author of the story likes to become and be an
artists and become, while the story of “Sonny’s Blues” it mention that Sonny
likes to become Musician that was his goal to achieve. If the person has his
own choice to do whatever he wants most of the time he becomes what he wants,
but if somebody is behind you, telling you to do this and that. That is the
time when creativity in hinders. In the article or story the author’s mother said
“idle hands and minds were the devil’s workshop.” This means that if a mind is not kept busy
with good things, wicked or evil thoughts and ideas are likely to enter. Your
mind can only focus one way not two ways. I really like this quote that it
stated in the story it’s a wisdom quote. It reminds me that for instance, when
I’m reading a book I always like to read in a quietly place with no noise and
distractions.
