Creativity Paradox!

As small kids we are told to sit straight, walk in line, we have to learn how to write with our right hand and what 5 times 3 is.... all very not what we want to do. We want to eat sand, throw with stones, behave like cavemen and piss in the sand to make mud to make a castle...


Later at school the teacher told us to shut up, sit still, stop drawing, stop putting notes on the back of our front line school colleagues, stop pestering the other girls, dont write on the wall, walk in line...stop being plain and simple annoying.... (I thougth that part of that was being creative... but OK... we did what the teacher said...: become a plant...like him)


In college we woul be intrigued by what it would be like to write on the head of the teacher, poor soda in the pants of a colleague, use cling film to block the toilet, we would dream of making nice paintings on the body of the girl next door, we would actually sit still and study, not to loose our scolarship, or be expelled from school because we painted a naked woman on the school yard wall... 


In fact some of us would become already like that teacher or have become teachers themselves... they are probable lost forever...


More later at work our boss would tell us to open our mouths, move our ass, do things different, be creative and innovative... write things on walls, put post its on the backs of colleagues..., make rawings, make posters, make something, do something, be something, "whats your hobby?..."


So our boss sends us to the Cherto Creativity Bootcamp, yes, indeed to become normal again, creative...


OK total paradox.... so at first we go to school to be thought not to be normal and then our boss has to send us on courses exactly to become normal again... hahaha... welcome to the creativity bootcamp of Cherto!


Welcome to your creative potential.
