Most people might ignore the aspects of creativity and what it can offer. A lot of people would rather go aimlessly through the day, and only use their mind enough just to do that. They do not understand how a creative mind can benefit them and enrich their lives. But applying creative thinking to your everyday life can make things so much more interesting. With creativity you free your mind up to think in new and exciting ways. There are many aspects of life in which you can find yourself benefiting from the use of a creative mindset. Here are just a few ways in which creative thinking can benefit you.

Creativity can help you find new ways to work, and find easier ways to do everyday chores. A creative and liberal mind will allow you to look at objects, motions and tasks in ways you may have never seen before. You can use creativity (and some ingenuity) to refurbish everyday objects to new uses (known as life hacks), and you can re-think everyday chores in new ways. Many people are already doing this, and you can find many examples online.

Creative thinking can also allow you to look at situations and topics in different ways. When you open your mind up to creative thinking you also open it up to new possibilities. Allowing yourself to have an open mind will give you the clarity to properly judge a situation. With creativity, you can also find ways to solve everyday problems in the fairest, and most efficient way. Creative thinking will also give you the ability to present, and interpret topics and information in fun, or interesting ways.

A creative mind is also a fun mind. With creativity and imagination you can make life fun. You can craft a game out of the most boring chores and tasks. Or you can think up of stories to entertain you as you drift off to sleep or when you find yourself with nothing to do. You can share those stories with friends, or even the internet. Maybe if you are lucky you can use creativity as a job. Such jobs include writing, drawing, painting, music, and so much more. Creative thinking can open all sorts of possibilities for fun, enriching, and fulfilling living. As you will find new ways to live, and new ways to smile.

Creativity will ultimately free your mind to fly wherever it pleases. It will open your eyes to new possibilities, and make you think of new ways to do everyday things. You can use creativity as a tool. A tool that can make work fun, life easier, save you from boredom, and even make you feel more fulfilled. Creativity will challenge your mind, enhance your brain, and give you the ability to think outside of the box.

Ultimately, while creativity will enhance your life; it is also important to life. Without creativity we as a race would not be where we are today. We would not have marvelous inventions like phones or the internet. We would lack the ability to build our civilizations up with magnificent buildings and sound structures. We would not have the marvelous stories of Shakespeare or The Odyssey. We would never see, or know art and music, and we would all just be mindless and numb beings who know nothing but survival. We would lack the capacity of living interesting and meaningful lives. Luckily that is not our current existence. Creativity is a part of our lives, and is one of the many things that make us human. So it is important that we all use our creative instincts to do good for ourselves, and give us the freedom to do awesome things.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
