How we misunderstand the purpose of creativity
Briefly

In 'The Mindset of Making,' Oliver Jeffers emphasizes that creativity extends beyond traditional artistry to encompass all human experiences. He invites us to recognize our inherent creativity, suggesting that everyone is a creator and storyteller, which shapes our world. Jeffers argues that equating creativity solely with decoration or entertainment undermines its essential purpose in human survival and civilization. By tapping into our innate creativity, we can transform our lives and the world around us.
The world is a result of all of us as creators and storytellers.
To say that creativity is just for artists is to fundamentally misunderstand the purpose of creativity.
