Good Job! - Being said "Good Job!" is really doing something good, or it is just others' want.

Everyone tells me creativity is important, but there is no one can actually tell me what it is. I consider part of creativity to saving labor, because new technology is usually regarded as "creative." However, saving labor might lead to the laziness of human beings. Is this really important? I consider part of creativity to being slaved, because we always want to be praised for our creativities. Under this circumstance, creativities are something not for us but for the evil dream of evil companies. While I don't use it for myself, is it really important? I consider part of creativity to enjoying our life, because there is no doubt that we are happy when thinking of something new. I hope that creativity is important only because my third consideration.

Creativity means that the ability to create unique thing that can be used to support our work. Creativity is a very important thing in whole of our life. A human being has the ability to create something unique. When you are creating something even it is an existing thing or something new, your are creative. Creativity means people's ability to create something meaningful.

Yeah, I agree with meaningful. But it is often seen that people make creativities equal to earning a lot. I hope there are more people thinking like you.

Creativity, for me, as being able to see new things, or stuff in a new light. Being innovative. Doing something different.

Plain and simple creativity is creating something from nothing. Under the circumstances creativity can let someone realize their dreams in terms of creating works of art, creating a business, creating friendships, creating ways to save on labor as you say. Shall I go on cause the possibilities are endless and wholly up to the person doing the creating.
