How Creative is Creativity


Jacob Mauger
 
“Creativity is contagious. Pass it on.” — Albert Einstein
Creativity is important to the world in advancing and progressing. For example in 1949 popular mechanics said "Computers in the future may weigh no more than 1.5 tons.” But today you can easily carry one around. This happened because some one had the creativity in computers. Lord Kelvin, president of Royal Society, 1895 said, "Heavier-than-air flying machines are impossible." But now today we have airplanes form the creativity of the Wright brothers. I believe that everyone needs to be creative so the world can advance into something better.
Sometimes people call creative ideas crazy or impossible. There was one time I had an idea and someone called it crazy. I knew my idea would work so I stuck with it. It was when I was in a competition and I had to make something to hold a 30 pound weight for the longest time given materials to use.  I created something that was different from everybody else. Other people called it “crazy and wont work.” I told them that “I think my project will work.” When the competition was over I won. So now I believe that creativity is important to advancing the world.
If you have an idea stick with it because what would the world be like if Karl Benz did not stick with his idea of a car or if Benjamin Franklin did not stick with his idea of electricity? Because of these and so many more people who are creative and stuck with there ideas the world has become what it is today. Even if it is something small like adding an extra ingredient to a recipe to see if it makes it better. You were creative enough to do it and wonder.
If you have something creative and different share it. It could be the next big thing. Everything starts somewhere from some creative person. To be creative you do not have to do it alone. Sharing and researching an idea with more people only makes an idea better. A lot of creative inventors and people did it with the help of others. It is always good to get help from other people. Looking up what other people have done to help you with your discoveries is good, so you do not have to test for something already done.
With creativity comes pressure. People can and will put down your ideas. But you have to be able to say “no” to them and say “I can do it and I will do it.” A person can take any idea as far as that person is willing to take it. I  This I believe creativity is contagious. Pass it on.

football

this week I went to two football games. the first game i went to was the Ohio state game they played Indiana . i sat in the first row near the one yard line. they were good seats only i could not see one half of the field. but it was a good game they won. the next day i went to the browns game. they played the Falcons. i had suite seats. they were good and got a lot of free food. the browns lost though. but Ohio state won so i had a good time. the games i went to were with my cousin and his dad and my grandpa. my cousin are from Seattle so i do not see them much and my grandpa lives about 2 hours away. but this week i had a good time at both games.

running

Today i ran 5 miles. I usually run 3-8miles a day. I also run a lot of 5 and 10ks. It was cold. i usually run through out my neighborhood. but some times i run in different parks. i have been running for about 1 year now. i am not on the track of cross country team because i only run for fun. i also run all year around out site. i do not like running on the treadmills. When i run on a  treadmill i fell like i am trapped. also i like the view and fresh air out side. My favorite place to run is along the beach. I did this when i went to Florida for 2 weeks. I ran almost everyday. All though it is a little rough on your feet it is still vary fun. running is fun and i will keep doing it for years to come.
