I think we're all born with creativity/inventiveness/imagination. Some of us use them and they flourish. Others don't and they atrophy. SAD?

IO those those abilities are like any muscle. Use 'em and the get stronger. Don't use them and eventually they will be useless. I don't KNOW if that's true but I kinda think it could be.  When was the last time you used your imagination/inventiveness/creativity? Is it rare when you do or do you use them often?

    Possibly but I was never good at those things at all nor did I ever feel as though I could handle them.   Which is perhaps why I admire very much creativity in artists, musicians, designers, business people.  I think rather we all have different gifts so some of us are more creative/ imaginative while the rest of us have other things long as we develop them.  I am very task-oriented and efficient in terms of getting things accomplished once I have learned to do something which a lot of creative people I know are not so good at.  Very good at doing the leg work and behind the scenes but not so good as far as seeing the larger picture.
