Creativity opens up many doors, opportunities, and possibilities. However, many of those “opportunities” and “possibilities” may not be the best move at the time. Many of the ideas in your mind right now have already been proven not to work. It is documented that it does not work, and the reasons why have already been stated. If you continue to try everything that comes to mind, success may remain elusive. You must be honest with yourself and consider the results of your creative endeavours. How effective have your original ideas been? And what’s the best way forward?
If you want to get results in your life, career, business or whatever you spend your time on. You must start by studying what is already proven to work, and then you model it. Your first creative task is to copy what is already known to work, and then get it working in your own life. There is no need to reinvent the wheel. Ecclesiastes 1:9 says, “The thing that has been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun”.
Without the discipline and experiential knowledge that comes from working on something known to work, you will struggle with your original ideas. Hands-on knowledge helps us to streamline and channel our creativity in a productive way. If you want to accelerate your creativity, humble yourself and copy the best ideas out there. Deep down you already know that some of your ideas are not good. Interestingly enough, you do not even know which of your ideas won’t work. Stop thinking of yourself more highly than you should (Romans 12:3). Prioritizing real world results over dreamy ideas is important for a fulfilling career.
