We all have it inside us, you just have to get your creative juices flowing.

Creative - pagiging malikhain. Natural na sa lahat ng tao yun.

It’s like somebody asking “seeing” can be learnt ?

try reading the book "Talent is Overrated" and "Mastery", after reading them, you can answer your own question.

Our right brain hemisphere controls creativity, so yes, everyone can be creative. We just need inspiration to get it flowing 👨‍🎨

Yes, absolutely but you have to find effective ways on how you can improve it, like invest in learning. It can be through trainings, have a mentor, or a community that supports creativity and growth. :)

Creativity is not a skill nor a function, discipline sya on how to create things out of no where. Usually creativity is alligned with marketing and anything related to art and design. Pero creativity has different forms. Hindi porket magaling ka mag drawing creative ka na; artistic ka pero it doesnt mean creative ka.

Evry one is creative on their way and inspiration.. traveling, learning, etc can make it.

Everyone is born with a level of creativity that you can choose to nurture or set aside. It's like having a knife that you can sharpen. You can draw it out by means of daily practice. You can get inspiration from the environment, watching or reading tutorials, choosing to look at different perspectives by other creative people. I'm a writer so I read a lot to get ideas.

I believe everyone has their creative side. You just have to explore your own side. Find out what you enjoy doing. Some people paint while some do photography. Some paint abstracts, some paint portraits. Kanya kanya naman po yun. :)

Be open lang. Something like that.

If you believe it then you can be creative. It is all about the mindset. There is no limit to what you can do only if you will work and put your effort to make it happen! 😊you are, so you will, then you can.

Creativity comes in different ways. Puwedeng, creative ka digitally, in writing, or through arts like painting, drawing, sculpting, etc. Don't put yourself in a box. Discover mo po kung saan ka nagiging creative, and finds ways to improve and get better. I agree that creativity is in everyone of us. Just be faithful with your craft and you'll get there ;)

For me creativity is in every one of us. The hard part is knowing where. May mga tao na super creative when it comes to designing, ang iba is on writing. But just like any other skill, it can be improved. As long as you are practicing it every day then eventually gagaling ka talaga.

I would say creativity can be learned. However it is a process—a tedious one in fact. You can develop your creative self through influences from other creatives. Say, you are into digital arts. You try to look for artists that interest you and you research all sorts of materials that you can use. In this process you can discover your own style. Hence, creativity can be learned. If not, then there should be no graphic design courses and other related programs. It’s not pure talent. It takes time, effort and dedication.

You just have to let yourself explore things you haven't explored yet. Open and broaden your horizon and surprise yourself in doing things you didn't thought you could do before. You won't lose anything in doing so.

In my opinion, creativite sense is more of a talent than a skill. You can't learn it but you can improve it over time. It will take a less creative person multiple times the time and effort to reach what a naturally creative person can do in a shorter amount of time. Kind of like how a sports car will get to their destination much faster than a bike, but they will both get to their destination. The difference is just how much time and effort they spend.

Inspiration then creativity comes.

Everyone can be creative in their own way. 🌺🌺 You can learn how to be creative in your own way. Just try and see what creative niche you would excel.

Creative or logical-thinking person - everyone always needs to learn in order to improve.

I believe so...through exposure and exploration, you gain ideas and patterns. Any creative mind is not so unique when you break it down to pieces.

For me, creativity is not a skill. Creativity is all about idea and your ability to translate and express that idea. However, a skill is your ability to do something. It can likewise be developed like a skill.

Example, you can be really creative, you have great vision of something but you do not have the skill to create. Good Skill plus Great creativity, you are blessed.

For me, NO. Because, to be creative means using your imagination. And if you are trying to learn someone's imagination. That is not creativity that is copying.

Creativity can be discovered. If you are open and interested enough to learn something new, even if you do not come out as an expert, to some degree you can discover some level that is workable for you.

Yes, anything can be learned.

I think you learn to be creative by adjusting your perspective. Learn what it takes to do it, keep doing it, never give up. Sooner or later you'll see you have it in you all along 😊 (I didn't think I had it in me until my next pay depended on it. Haha!)

Creativity is UNIQUE. It can be learned and then eventually you will discovered it within you. Some people will have difficulty to discover it within themselves and therefore needs INSPIRATION.

You can learn art and creativity. Ang mahirap imagination. Pag dating sa creativity dapat inspired ka para madami ideas.. Creativity can be learned, need mo lang ng inspiration.

I see it like this. For someone who is a creative person like me and it's also part of my profession, I taught ny self to learn how to use photoshop or other designing programs. I have friends who had formal studies on photoshop with certificates but never did achieve the designs that I can do in photoshop. Photoshop is merely just a tool to execute your creative ideas. Being creative for me is innate in people even at a young age and not everyone is gifted with it. Creativity is part of how you think, see and approach things. Like when you see things outside or online, what's the first thing you will notice or how do you see it in a creative perspective. Part of being creative is your attention to details and overall aethetics. In some parts it can be learned at some point the inner creativity needs to be there as part of your system.

Yes. It’s rare for someone to be so effortlessly creative (there are some cases) but I believe creativity for most part could be learned. Some people who likes art started from squiggles and scribbles. It takes patience and practice sometimes

I believe any skills can be learned. Fear is what stops most of us. Although there are people who are truly born with it but it's something we all can learn.

Im a video editor and now working as a designer for some simple graphics. I never liked it, its far from what i wanted, not until I was pushed to do it.

The more you do it, the easier it gets. You just have to keep learning. Keep practicing. 😉

" Everything you needed to know about creativity starts by making mistakes"

NO, some people just isn't lucky enough to be born with it.

some may claim that its a product of their new found creativity but deep down its just a copy of someone else work.

Techniques and skills can be acquired, which i believe are what most people are referring to in their comments - Not creativity.
