[quote=zanza;#395999;1397474772]It's not because they are conformists but because they are simply idiots who don't have the necessary skills to enter the competitive world of business.[/quote] Because they complied when schools/universities taught theoretical bullshit and directed them to be the workforce. [quote=zanza;#395999;1397474772]And I always thought creativity is innate. [/quote] I thought so too but that's because the whole life we've been told by people around us that if you can draw / write / sculpt / play music / etc. we are creative. Then we started to believe if we can't draw / write / sculpt / play music / etc. we are not creative. The truth is creativity is not just about artistry. Can you learn to produce something or to solve a problem, in a relevant and innovative way? If your answer is yes then creativity is not innate and anyone can learn to be creative.
