TALENT, A PRECURSOR FOR INNOVATION(1)

TALENT

It is the natural ability, skill, or inclination of an indivividual. However, that someone through "commitment" grows in  a talent is not impossible.

Its talent that everyone has, yet they think they don't. The power of innovation. If you've ever marvelled at somebody's creative prowess, guess what, you can create and innovate too. It just takes
time. Everyone is born creative. Think about it; The box of crayons in kindergarten were not limited to those who possessed potential; because the truth is, everybody has potential.

You know how long it took to learn to ride a bike or drive or to never
commit the same mistake again? It's the same with innovation. It takes a bit of practice and a lot of time before this mind function comes easily when challenged.

          This article will teach you a few tips on how to bring innovation into your life.
♤Don't listen to what other people say. ♤Follow the beat of your own drum. ♤Allowing for the input of other people will only bring cacophony to the music you are trying to make. If you have an
original idea, don't waste your time and effort trying to make people
understand.
They won't. And the help you will probably get comes in the form of negative feedback. If all those geniuses listened to their peers, we would probably still be living in the middle ages.
♤Spend time on it.
I cannot stress that enough, although, please do not mistake this tip to tell you to quit your day job entirely. Do not!
This involves some tricky time management but with little discipline
you'll be able to squeeze both in.
♤Exercise.
♤Take a walk. Run a mile or two. Send all those endorphins coursing through your veins. Exercising certainly clears and relaxes
your mind and allows for anything to pop up.
Record your dreams. Aren't some of them just the craziest things
that your conscious mind would never have thought of? If you've had
these dreams before, and I'm sure have, this only shows you the
untapped innovative power you have lying within. So jot down those
notes. Those dreams may just create aninnovative spark in you.
Find your own style. You can always tell a Van Gogh from a Matisse.
You'll know Hemingway wrote something by the choice of words on
the paper. So it is the same with you. People will appreciate your
innovation more because it is uniquely yours and that no one else
would have thought of what you were thinking. That will let people
see how valuable an asset you are.
Don't hide behind nifty gadgets or tools. You don't need the most
expensive set of paints to produce a masterpiece. The same way with
writing. You don't need some expensive fountain pen and really a smooth paper for a bestseller. In fact, J.K. Rowling wrote the first
book of the Harry Potter Series on bits of tissue. So what if you've
got an expensive SLR camera if you're a crappy photographer? Who
cares if you've got a blinging laptop if you can't write at all? The artist actually reduces the number of tools he has as he gets better at his craft: he knows what works and what doesn't. Inspiration for creativity may be completely instantaneous!
