Creative Work
A Workplace is a location or environment where you spend the majority of your working hours.
Where might your workplace be - behind a desk (in a Herman Miller chair of course), on a fishing boat, out in a field on a plow, painting art in the outdoors, or creating flower arrangements?
This page is devoted to promote creative thinking, getting out of the box, stepping outside one’s paradigm, being like a child again without fear of falling as we learned to walk. The environment we are in all impacts such thinking. Does having a positive and supportive work environment foster such thinking? We think so.
As children we were filled with curiosity, always asking questions, searching to understand. As we grow and mature we can become conformist to a degree that we loose our individuality and our born sense of adventure and exploration.
Where do creative thinkers get their ideas and solutions to challenging issues? We think it happens quite often when people are out of their normal element and their mind is free to wonder. It’s amazing what the subconscious mind can do given time. Writers can have what’s termed writers block. Others can experience the same experience in their work. Sometimes it just takes getting away or escaping into another setting.
Wherever your workplace is, we hope it is a supportive environment where you have the ability and outlet for creative thinking, and input in what you do.
Is the guy up above lost in his chair or is he experiencing the ability to look at things with a different perspective? Lastly, we hope you can find personal reward and enjoyment in what you do.
