Insanity means doing the same thing over and over again, expecting different results. This saying is well-known and can be used to help change bad habits. This statement can be used to inspire creativity and invent new scientific ideas.

The World Creativity and Innovation Day gives people an excuse to think new ways to solve old problems. There is also the possibility of discovering better and more efficient methods to achieve our goals.

There is no need to continue with the same old hum-drum routines of day-to-day life. It is time to awaken your creative side, regardless of how deep it has been hidden, and to make the world a better place.

A man was born in 1452 who set the standard for Renaissance men, excelling both in the sciences and arts. His interests included Invention, Mathematics and Music, Geology, Astronomy and Cartography to name just a few. Leonardo da Vinci made important advances in almost any field he could think of.

This man was actually viewed as an exemplary example of universal genius. His logical approach to the world was unique for its time and was a true inspiration. Although he was unique, it doesn’t mean that others can’t learn from him and think in new ways.

World Creativity and Innovation Day was created to encourage everyone to dig deeply and discover their inner da Vinci.

Innovation and creativity are important in all walks of life. Customers service workers find ways to make their customers happy. Scientists learn new things every day and then apply that knowledge to new situations. Politicians who are able to use their creativity and find innovative ways to help the public, to medical professionals who can search for new ways to protect their patients and society.

World Creativity and Innovation Day, which is supported by the United Nations encourages everyone to imagine a better world through different solutions and greater cooperation.

How to celebrate World Creativity and Innovation Day

These are some ideas to celebrate World Creativity and Innovation Day. You can also come up with your own ideas.

Begin your day by brainstorming. Then, sit down and consider all the things that you do throughout the day and how you can make them better. Instead of getting annoyed at them, look for motivation in the imperfect (or less-than-perfect!) things around you.

Keep a notebook handy throughout the day and take note of any ideas or suggestions that come up.

Sometimes creativity and inspiration can come from doing things differently. You can sit in a different spot at the restaurant, or you could take a picnic lunch outside. For a few moments, climb up a tree to see the world from the top.

Even something as small as changing the route you take to work can make a big difference in how someone thinks and responds to problems. Biking to work is a better option than driving. Public transportation is an option. Walking when it is possible. These little things can make people change their perspective.

Wait? Perhaps you think public transportation is not an option. Why? It’s not accessible in this community. Perhaps that’s the first problem that should be recognized, looked at creatively, advocated for, and solved.

Have an idea for a local municipality or town? Let them know what you think and how they can help others.

Have a great idea for your employer? Talk to your boss or supervisor about creative solutions.

Have a plan to improve your personal life? Get it moving and watch your creativity take flight.

Sometimes innovation and creativity can come from looking at things from other places that could be improved in our own little corner. It’s possible to learn about how different cultures and groups do things around the world, which can not only help foster respect but also inspire great ideas. This will promote creativity and innovation, whether you are just watching a documentary or actually visiting a new location.

World Creativity and Innovation Day may be the day to set the world on a new course!
