Workshop 2
Unlocking Our Hidden Potential
Fostering Creativity within Communities
Workshop Description:
Creativity is often misunderstood to be a talent possessed by a select few, while in reality, it's a skill that can be nurtured and developed by anyone.
In Unlocking Our Hidden Potential we address this issue to empower students to both recognize and cultivate their own innate creative abilities, regardless of their prior beliefs or self-perceptions.
Fear of failure, lack of confidence, lack of resources, external pressures, routine and habit, resistance to change, risk aversion, limited exposure to creativity, negative past experiences: these are just a few of the inhibitors to creativity.
In the context of fostering creativity we encourage students to adopt a Fertile Mindset, a practice that promotes; exploring new ideas, continuous improvement and collaboration, taking risks, learning from criticism, embracing challenges and finding inspiration in the success of others.
Through a combination of theoretical exploration, stories and testimonies, open and interactive discussion and hands-on exercises, students will learn to identify, navigate, and ultimately transcend the barriers that stand in the way of their creative expression.
Workshop Objectives:
Let's examine the spiritual, psychological, social, and environmental factors that can inhibit creativity.
