Mikhail Sharanda on the nature of thinking outside the box and how to shape your surroundings to help guide you
Almost everyone would like to be more creative. But at the same time, the more creative experiences we have, the less original we become. how does that happen? Either way, understanding the nature of this process today will definitely help you to become a more creative individual tomorrow.
Too many of us believe that you have to be born an artist. And the myth that it has something to do with the creative right side of the brain still hasn’t been busted. In fact, both hemispheres of the brain are responsible for logical and creative thinking at the same time. Individuals with larger brains show higher intelligence on average, but what truly matters is the complexity of neural connections. This way, individuals who deal with creative tasks daily solve them faster and in a more creative way.
My path was winding, and I wasn’t any good at the beginning. I was curious about design, but my parents insisted that I should study computer science. It was a great asset, but I still became a designer, nevertheless. This ‘it’s meant to be!’ attitude is something we all would like to believe in. But for me, it was simply something that I enjoyed doing for a long time. The more I repeated the same kind of thinking processes, the better I’d become. Looking back, it finally becomes clearer that creativity and design thinking are not gifts, they’re simply the development of your brain. Thus, you can train it and shape it to work how you want it to.
