[center]5 of the Biggest Myths About Creative People[/center]
Elise Moreau
October 11, 2015
Creativity is generally defined as the ability to come up with
imaginative or unique ideas that haven’t been thought up by
anyone else before. But because the word tends to be overused in
describing everything from team effort in a workplace setting to
throwing a themed dinner party at home, its true meaning can
often seem vague and unclear even when used in certain contexts.
People who are labeled as “creatives” even sometimes get a bad
rap for all the misconceptions about what they do and how they
work. If that’s you, or even someone you know, it may be worth
reviewing some of the following points that totally debunk some
of the most common stereotypical assumptions about creative
people.
HTML http://www.desismileys.com/smileys/desismileys_0293.gif
Myth #1: Creative people are right-brained.
You’ve probably heard it before: The right side of the brain is
responsible for creativity, while the left side is all about
analytical thinking. You can stop believing this is true,
because modern science has determined that the creative process
involves many regions across the brain that isn’t limited to
just one side. Many regions even interact and work together,
depending on the stage in the creative process and what the task
may be.
Myth #2: Creative people pull their inspiration out of thin air.
Otherwise known as the “eureka!” myth, it’s popular to assume
that creatives spend hours and hours of their time thinking
until suddenly the big idea they’ve been waiting for just arises
out of nowhere when they least expect it. It may seem like
that’s what’s happening, but you can chalk it all up to
something we all do, called divergent thinking—the type of
relaxed and aimless thinking that happens when you take a break
from focusing on the problem at hand and allow your mind to
wander.
Myth #3: Creative people specialize in the arts.
Musicians, writers, painters, sculptors, dancers and
actors—they’re the real creatives, aren’t they? We all have to
be careful with thinking that creativity applies mostly or only
to some of these very specific forms of art. A scientist may
need to look for new clues in his research, a team of engineers
may need to come up with an innovative product to stand out from
the competition or an accountant may need to figure out a
different approach to audit financial statements. All these
seemingly unimaginative jobs involve much more creativity than
you might assume.
Myth #4: Creative people are simply born with it.
Many people look at very successful creative individuals and
assume that their talent simply comes naturally to them. What
they don’t see are the days, weeks, months and years these
people have put into their work, the knowledge and experience
they acquired and the many failures they endured before finding
success. Creativity can be a learned skill, as long as you’re
willing to work for it.
Myth #5: Creative people are loners.
It’s obvious that some of the most famous artists, scientists
and inventors that have made their mark on the world are known
to have been lone geniuses who thrived on carrying out their
artwork and experiments for hours in seclusion. That may be the
case for some, but in other cases, sometimes one person ends up
receiving all the credit when in fact the creative process
depended on the collaborative efforts of an entire team. After
all, when you think about it, it would seem pretty impossible
for one person to be solely responsible for all the creativity
behind an Oscar-worthy Hollywood movie, a band’s chart-topping
album or even a massive breakthrough in scientific research.

[center]Do All People Have Bacteria in Their Stomachs?
???[/center]
It was a dirty job: ;D A study done by Stanford scientists, Dr.
Patrick Brown and Dr. David Relman, sampled a year's worth of
diapers in 14 different babies to confirm that babies are born
with no bacteria in their digestive systems. Adults, however,
have about 100 trillion bacteria in their digestive systems.
While babies are born with no bacteria in their digestive system
at the time of birth, it only takes a few days post-birth for
bacteria to begin to grow.
The study also found that even over the first year the bacteria
found in the stool samples varied widely from baby to baby.
Scientists were intrigued by this finding since adults typically
have the same bacterial families colonizing in their digestive
system with little variance over time. However, at the end of
the first year, the scientists found the bacteria in a baby's
digestive system does begin to resemble that of an adult.

More interesting facts about babies:[/center]
•Babies are not born with kneecaps. :o
•Babies born in May are usually the heaviest; weighing on
average about 200 grams more than babies born in any other
month.
•A baby recognizes the smell and voice of their mother from
birth, and can visually distinguish their mother from other
adults in just a few weeks.

[center]These observed phenomena are all REAL. [/center]
But Science CANNOT explain them. Particularly unsettling to
those who worship science and it's view that the physical
universe is the limit of reality, is the placebo effect. It even
works better than nothing when you KNOW it is a placebo!
Learn about a careful, meticulous science experiment done
involving patients that required knee surgery divided into three
groups.
Only ONE group of the three was actually given knee surgery. The
other two groups given two variations of placebo surgery
(incision with saline solution or just an incision) had equal or
better rates of healing. ;D
But there is a terrible downside to the placebo effect.
Propagandists and Con artists everywhere have noticed how
effective it is at fooling people. The Fossil Fuel Industry
HTML http://www.createaforum.com/gallery/renewablerevolution/3-200714191329.bmp<br
/>learned it from the Tobacco Industry (see: Birds of a feather)
.
HTML http://www.createaforum.com/gallery/renewablerevolution/3-200714191329.bmp<br
/>
If a polluting industry that is trashing the planet for short
term gain can convince enough people that their pollution is
"beneficial" to the biosphere, the minds of those propagandized
would work to prevent that pollution from being accepted as
real.
Perhaps the greatest hidden tool of the fossil fuel industry to
fight global warming (in order to preserve their profits, not to
stop the pollution) is the propaganda effort to convince people
we are entering an ice age! If enough people believe that,
reason the Empathy Deficit Disordered ASS HOLES that cheerlead
fossil fuels, the placebo effect might even slow global warming
down!
But there is a GIANT problem with that logic. And it is not
about whether the placebo effect is real or not. That much has
been proven. It's the DENIAL of the FACT that something is
INJURING the biosphere that undermines any hope of using a mass
placebo effect to reduce or prevent global warming.
Whether that would work to prevent the biosphere from being
polluted is not the question. WHY? Because the placebo effect
ONLY works when you think you need to be HEALED of a disease or
injury. The Fossil Fuel Industry has PREVENTED public awareness
of the problem (i.e. injury/disease to the biosphere).

The placebo effect may work quite well inside our bodies but I
suspect the faith to move mountains is at odds with fooling
people in using faith to prevent global warming. The predators
'R' US crowd running the polluting industries are not known for
their faith or good works. They are known for there 24/7 lie
that they are our "loyal servants concerned only with our
welfare".

They claim they are merely "supplying our demand" when, in
actuality, they are gaming us to supply THEIR demand. Clever,
aren't they?
Now you know why the propagandists for the fossil fuel industry
lie, distort and double talk about "no warming for a decade,
"warming has ceased", "we are entering an ice age" and, last but
not least in the hit parade of Push the Placebo to Preserve
Profits efforts, "it's the sunspots, not Carbon Dioxide", that
control Earth's temperature" baloney.

Charles Faraone, History is written by the victors
Jeanne Calment. She lived to 122, from 1875 to 1997.
She said that she met Vincent Van Gogh as a child, and that he
was dirty, poorly dressed, and disagreeable.
She smoked until she was 117.
One of the funnier things about her life is that when she was
90, a 47 year old lawyer got her to sign a contract so that if
she died, he'd get her apartment. In return, he'd give her a
monthly stipend.
He assumed she'd be dead within a couple years at most, so he
was hoping to get her apartment on the cheap.
But she just kept living. Eventually he died at 77, never having
received the apartment. His widow kept paying Calment after his
death per the contract.
By the time she died, she'd been paid $180,000... over twice the
apartment's worth.

Az,
Since you are open minded, unlike many out there who prefer to
bask in unimaginative denial of anything they cannot instantly
prove, I want to run this by you.
Have you ever considered how ROUND the Gulf of Mexico is? Isn't
it possible that one BIG ASSED ROCK hit there and wiped
EVERYTHING out within 10,000 miles (or more) in the past? Big
bullets make round holes! ;D
Human existence is incredibly fragile. I can picture a scenario
where a rock that is NOT supposed to hit our planet from past
NASA tracking (Near Earth Orbit - NEO rocks) DOES hit. All that
has to occur is for the rock to get too close to the moon and
get a gravitational slingshot at us. If it's big enough, we get
ANOTHER GULF OF MEXICO!
[move]
Here's the result of a (somewhat smaller) hypothetical hit of an
asteroid in the present Gulf of Mexico.[/move]

My friend you are spot on ! {pun intended}
According to the data/intel on said crater the object in
question was 110 miles in diameter. It had to have entered the
planet during Noah's flood event or the impact on dry land would
have vaporized every living thing topside. Noah mentions a great
wind across the land & I'll bet it's from this impact. Look at
the devastation from Tunguska in Mother Russia. That event may
not of even had an object hit but vaporize prior to impact.
Here's the corker. Most of the big shi tty's along the gulf are
prone to slide into the gulf as their all built on the shift
prone edge. Gil Broussard has graphics of the gulf event over at
his you tube page (Planet7X) There's a drop box link to his
stuff. It's well researched. Very interesting.
Thanks for following along on this thread. I know the threads
getting looked at but folks must be just dumb founded about it
all.

AG,
I forgot to mention also that " A L L " of our tectonic plates
are a direct result of the gulf event. When that 110 mile across
space rock came whistlin' in at over 188,000 mph flamin' hot &
punched its way to the center of the planet
through a flooded earth it not only cracked earth mommy like an
egg but created the Himalaya's instantaneously :o ...... Notice
that those mtns have a circular pattern Gil Broussard has
graphics on this as well.
Gill Broussard also hypothesized that our moon was created from
this flood/impact event. If you'll notice the land mass missing
from the crust that is now ocean on this planet is closely equal
to the mass of material used to create the moon.

AZ,
I just want to add that several years ago, when I learned of the
hypothesis that our moon was the result of a blow from an
asteroid that ejected it into orbit around the earth, I realized
that it explained a LOT about the large size of the dinosaurs.
Unlike sea creatures, which can get quite large despite the
present gravity, land creatures are limited by physiology and
bones density and leverage limitations.
Although the idiots out there will scoff, the math HAS been done
and the only way dinosaurs could have gotten that big (modern
elephant anatomy and physiology has have been compared as proof)
was if the gravity was lower. A large asteroid striking the
earth would explain the radical slowing of rotation (more
perceived gravity through less centrifugal force) and the
increase in gravity due to increased mass.
At any rate, I am convinced that earth, for whatever reason, had
a more rapid rotation and less gravity due to less mass in the
past. The Earth expanded. The relatively YOUNG age of the ocean
beds is geologic evidence of that.
The expanding earth hypothesis does not mention the Gulf of
Mexico strike. It should. I think that is the missing piece in
the explanation of our moon and the large increase in Earth's
mass.
