By Mariam Plauwitz

Have you ever sat in front of a blank page after you've resolved to finally draw something again and you simply have no idea what to draw? Your head is suddenly empty, even though you've just been thinking about all the things you absolutely mustn't forget and wondering why your neighbor is vacuuming so early again. You've probably wondered why other people around you have so many original ideas and always have a solution for everything. These people don't let problems get them down and it seems as if they perceive the world differently; more positively and imaginatively. Their creativity makes their everyday life, their job and many situations in which a good and useful idea is needed easier. You could say that they have an advantage over other people and are enviable. Would you like to know what these people do differently and how you can manage to become as creative as they are?
