CHOSEN to Create
Do you know what it means to be Creative? Do you know how to successfully implement the skill of co-creating into your business and everyday life? If not, I welcome you to join me, as we learn together.
First, what exactly does it mean to be creative? Second, what is the main difference between co-creating for spirituality versus business and third, what are the benefits and tips of co-creating?
According to advertising legends, Al Ries, and Jack Trout, “To be creative is to create something that doesn’t already exist in the mind.” Writer, Jamie Birt of Indeed wrote, “Creativity is the ability to think about a task or a problem in a new or different way, or the ability to use the imagination to generate new ideas.”
Spiritual writer, Phylameana Desy of Learn Religions wrote, “Co-creation is acknowledging that we are responsible for our own life and continually taking the initiative to gain success, happiness, and wellness.” Phylameana believes co-creation happens naturally whenever our soul or inner knowing inspires us to act and follow our passion or pursue our life purpose.
Muthu De Silva, Assistant Dean at Birkbeck, University of London, stated that co-creation “involves the integration of partners’ resources, knowledge and networks to resolve challenges or to capitalize on opportunities that they cannot, independently within individual or organizational boundaries.”
MasterClass, a collective of business luminaries that includes Sara Blakely, Chris Voss, Robin Roberts, Bob Iger, Howard Schultz and Anna Wintour, wrote, “Co-creation emphasizes the co-production of value between a company and a customer.”
