What skill do I most treasure and why?

I treasure my creativity the most, because it is both a skill and a gift. It makes life much more interesting, because in my mind I can transform everything into a story or a painting or a poem or a photography or maybe even a dance. It is also very great in solving problems.

An example of a creative solution: When I worked with children, there were this boy with an enormous creative mind. He had a tendency to forget to eat because he was so into whatever he played (many times he had superpowers;). We were told to make sure he among others ate their meal and I stopped him in the hallway. "You must go and eat," I told him. He said no, he hadn't the time. Without thinking I told him as a matter of fact, "If you don't eat, you will lose your superpowers." He practically ran into the room where we served our meals:)

But most of all I treasure it, because it will certainly make my life into a great adventure))) I love my creativity!

That's cute :) Kids are awesome.

We lose so much creativity when we grow up, don't you think? I think only a few of us hang onto it as much as we do. Sad, really. It would be an amazing world if we all used a little creativity. . .

Have you ever thought of being a creativity coach?
