10 paradoxes…..

1. Creative people have a great deal of physical energy, but they’re also often quiet and at rest.

Menurut pendapat saya pernyataan ini benar sekali. karena saya memang menemui beberapa teman saya yang kreatif tentunya mempunyai sifat energik tetapi terkadang menjadi diam dan tenang. kadang orang tersebut bisa jadi sangat periang,senang dan energik akan tetapi di lain waktu dia bisa jadi sangat pendiam. Di saat dia diam mungkin dia sedang berimajinasi dan memikirkan hal hal yang tak kita pikirkan biasanya. bagi para seniman biasanya mereka suka menyendiri atau berdiam untuk mencari inspirasi agar bisa mendapat ide ide yang cemerlang.

2. Creative people tend to be smart yet naive at the same time.

orang creative menurut pandangan saya adalah merupakan orang orang yang pintar dan cerdas sehingga saya setuju dengan pernyataan tersebut. bagaimana dengan naive? beberapa orang baik yang creative ataupun kurang creative juga memiliki sifat naive. naive merupakan suatu kebiasaan dan sifat masing masing orang. orang yang creative adalah orang yang bebas untuk menyalurkan bakat dan kemampuannya. dan jika orang itu naive atau tidak itu bukanlah suatu masalah…

3. Creative people combine playfulness and discipline, or responsibility and irresponsibility.

saya sangat setuju dengan pernyataan di atas. sebenarnya tidak hanya orang yang creative saja yang mempunyai sifat tersebut. akan tetapi setiap orang harus memiliki sifat tersebut dan harus bisa menentukan visi dan misi masing masing. orang yang creative biasanya mengkombinasikan beberapa sifat tersebut, akan tetapi ada juga orang creative yang mempunyai disiplin tinggi dan membuat prioritas dalam melakukan pekerjaannya. seperti yang saya jelaskan sebelumnya menajdi orang creative adalah menjadi orang yang bebas untuk berkreasi . jadi orang creative mempunyai sifat yang berbeda beda dan karakter sendiri sendiri.

4. Creative people alternate between imagination and fantasy, and a rooted sense of reality.

saya agak bingung dengan pernyataan di atas. akan tetapi menurut pendapat saya semua orang mempunyai imaginasi yang berbeda beda. biasanya orang yang creative mempunyai daya imajinasi yang luar biasa melebihi orang lain. dan mereka bisa menyalurkan daya kretifitas mereka menjadi kenyataan.

5. Creative people tend to be both extroverted and introverted.

orang yang kreatif biasanya mempunyai sifat yang sulit ditebak. biasanya mereka mengekspresikan idenya secara bebas dan tanpa ada halangan. kadang mereka bisa bersikap menjadi introvert ataupun extrovert. kadang mereka menjadi pendiam dan menyendiri untuk menemukan ide.

6. Creative people are humble and proud at the same time.

orang yang kreatif pasti akan bangga dengan hasil karya atau ide yang mereka kemukan atau ide mereka yang telah menjadi kenyataan. disisi lain mereka juga rendah hati akan ide ide dan hasil yang telah ia ciptakan.

7. Creative people, to an extent, escape rigid gender role stereotyping

saya sangat bingung dengan pernyataan ini. akan tetepi menurut saya orang yang creative pasti mempunyai karakter dan ide ide spesial yang tidak dipikirkan oleh orang lain. sehingga mereka tidak ingin sama dengan orang lain. dan mempunyai selera yang berbeda dan unik tentunya.

8. Creative people are both rebellious and conservative.

setuju sekali dengan yang ini… orang yang kreatif biasanya selalu aneh dalama berimajinasi dan berpola pikir inilah yang mebuat mereka conservatives dalam berpikir dan berimajinasi. kadang mereka tidak suka diatur atau dibatasi dalam mengkreasikan ide mereka, itulah yang membuat mereka disebut rebellious. karena suka bertindak dan berpikir melanggar aturan ato kebiasaan yang ada. itulah yang mebuat mereka menjadi kreatif dan berkarakter…

9. Most creative people are very passionate about their work, yet they can be extremely objective about it as well

Setuju! orang yang kreatif biasanya sangat menekuni dan semangat dalam melakukan pekerjaan yang mereka senangi. karena mereka biasanya bisa lebih berekspresi dengan pekerjaan yang cocok dengan mereka. mereka selalu mencoba menciptakan sesuatu yang baru dan tentunya menantang buat mereka.

10. Creative people’s openness and sensitivity often exposes them to suffering and pain, yet also to a great deal of enjoyment.

setuju… seperti pembahasan oleh anggara pradhana : no pain, no gain…

berikut adalah comment saya tentang 10 paradoks dari Mihaly.. smoga bisa membantu mnurut saya orang yang creative adalah orang yang bebas berkreasi, berkarakter serta unik dalam berimajinasi dan bertindak…. thanks…

most creative company…

Actually I’m very confused to decide what the most creative company in the world because I think it is very subjective. After I think I decide to choose the toy company, it is a creative company because make new toy that need full imagination and innovation to create their product. I will choose the LEGO Company as my discussion.

LEGO is based on two Danish words “leg godt” that mean play well and founded in 1932 by Ole Kirk Christiansen. It has come long way over 70 years that begin from a small carpenter’s workshop to modern, global enterprise that is right now and it is become the world’s a sixth largest manufacturer toys. Now Lego has many product and also new toys every time. LEGO vision is to inspire children to explore their own creative potential. In the process and playfully develops a set future such as creative and structured problem solving, imagination, curiosity, interpersonal skill and physical motor skill, so the children can learn through play. Lego product is not creating just for the children only but they develop for all ages from kindergarten to adult. Each of the Lego products has different category and model based on their stages.

Preschool products are the category for the children who have not yet started school. The product is to encourage them through creativity use their motor skills and their hands.

Lego also has the traditional Lego bricks to build the building based our imagination. The Lego is specially produced for the builders that want to think creatively and use their imagination.

There is a Lego that built up around a story for example police, racer, knights etc.

With Lego we can also design and make real robots. The robots can be programmed to perform and do several operations. It made by the software that included.

the most creative person??

I think it is very subjective to choose and judge who the most creative people in the world because each people have different opinion to make the judgment. Now, I am very confused to choose who the most creative person in the world because in my mind there are so many people in the world that has very creative thinking. There are so many activities and work that need a lot of creativity. After I think in several few minutes, I have several ideas who are the most creative person in the world and the one is a musician.

Do you like music? Whether you like it or not, everyday everyone always listens to the music. The music is just not from the song that we want to hear but in unconscious we usually hear music too like when we watch TV commercial we unconscious also hear the music background. Usually we do not aware if in our daily life we always hear music. I like music and whatever that related with it so much. In my opinion a musician is a very creative person because they have to think to make a music or song that very original and fresh, it needs a lot of creativity! A musician usually makes the concept and imagine before they make music whether make a song, music arrangement, music production etc. a musician is a very gambling work because they not always get constant wages and not always have a settled life. But I am very proud with every musician because they have braved to do the job and the job is based on their creative idea. So many musicians have a good living and good wages too. Moreover many musicians have a lot of money than the office worker and become music for their living.

I like to listen and play music a lot. Many and almost all the musician is very creative and has out of the box idea. The one is Ludwig Van Beethoven as the person who is most creative person in music. He was the composer and a brilliant pianist; he has very famous composition song such as Pathétique and Moonlight sonatas. Beethoven began to lose his hearing in 1976, in that time he was very hard to compose and appreciate music. His hearing loss did not prevent him to make music and composition. Beethoven use special rod attached to the soundboard piano that he could bite and the vibrations would then transfer from the piano to his jaw to increase his perception of the sound. And in 1814 he was almost totally deaf. But nowadays many people and musician very proud and appreciate with his music.
Not only musician but other people that related to music industry also have creative idea such as sound engineer, producer, composer, film scoring maker etc.

the power of creativity

hello…. this is my first post on my blog. Now I want to talkand discuss about the power and importance of creativity. actually I’m not expert about this thing but I just want to write what is my opinion about the creativity.

In my opinion, creativity is very importance for our daily life. every day we have to think creatively to make decision and to solve every problems. every one always use and need creativity.  not just an artist, musician and other than related to an art but other profession like doctors,scientist, businessman, engineer, educator, and many else are need creativity too. with creativity we can invent, create and make a new thing. so every people should think creatively and independent to drain their opinion. think out of the box and feel free to deliver our opinion is needed. creativity is the key success of our lives in today that rapidly changing world.

in business we need to be think creatively. we should make something different,original and brandly new to attract people. if we make a new product but actually the same product that has been exist in the market,it will be not worthed and we will be lose from other new competitor than has new idea and fresh originality product.  creativity also affect us to make a decision making. we have to think creatively to solve every problem that we have. not just use our mind but use our creativity to develop our imagination so that we can tink out of the box and find the best way.

sometimes many adults people just forgot to use their imagination and creativity to make a decision and to solve a problem. there is an test and exercise about creativity. a teacher drew a dot on the whiteboard and asked the class to identify it and they respond with obvious: a dot. it has different result and opinion when the teacher ask the kindergartners because they had come up with many imagination such as: a squashed bug,  an owl’s eye, a rotten egg and still many more imagination. somewhere childhood and adulthood many of us lose the ability to be creative and search for more than one right answer. so as an adult we have to maintain and use our creativity.
