There are Four Ways to Be Creative

Deliberate and Cognitive Creativity

You must have a pre-existing body of knowledge about one or more particular topics. One must also be given enough time to work through a topic/problem.

Deliberate and Emotional Creativity

Requires quiet time to think and ponder. Step away from the problem. People tend to have an a-ha moment having to do with feelings and emotions.

Spontaneous and Cognitive Creativity

Conscious part of the brain stops working on the problem and gives the unconscious part a chance to work instead. *Step away and do a different unrelated activity.

Spontaneous and Emotional Creativity

Often one must have a skill (such as musician, artist, writer) to create something from spontaneous and emotional creativity.

**Allow yourself time to work on a design solution and when you get stuck take a step back (sleep on it).**
