What is Creativity?

According to a dictionary, the word 'creativity' means 'The ability to use your imagination to produce new ideas'. In other words, someone with a creative mind would create something that is new that has some kind of value. We are born creative. However, as we grow up, our creativity started to get diminished. It is due to the environment we grew up with. School education system, people's beliefs and rules that we followed throughout our lives made us scared to speak up of our ideas. Parents who might scold us for scribbling drawings on walls or floors and teachers who frown upon our unorthodox ways of solving questions have affected our ability to think creatively.
