You’ve always known cultivating your creativity is good for problem solving,
motivation and career growth, but research also suggests when you express your
creativity, you’ll experience greater wellbeing and happiness. And who doesn’t
want more of that?
 
For some, creativity may seem out of reach—reserved only for those who paint or
sculpt or play the violin. But, in reality, creativity is something all of us can access.
In fact, any job (or life!) benefits from creative thinking, and any person can
express it in their own way.
 
Creativity also seems to be a sure path toward experiencing more happiness.
Ironically, if you pursue happiness for its own sake, you’ll be less likely to achieve
it. But you can harness happiness by creating the conditions through which you can
access it—and creative pursuits are a surefire way to bring about more joy.
