挖掘你隐藏的创造力的力量
挖掘你隐藏的创造力的力量
Despite what you might have been taught — everyone can be creative.
不管你是否学过，每个人都可以有创造力。
It’s too easy to think of creativity as just being reserved for musicians, artists and writers. In reality, creativity can be used in all jobs and in all areas of life.
我们很容易认为创造力只属于音乐家、艺术家和作家。事实上，创造力可以用在所有的工作和生活的各个领域。
I’m referring to creative traits such as thinking outside the box, finding new solutions to old problems, and combining two ideas to invent a new one.
我指的是创造性的特质，比如跳出思维定势，为老问题寻找新的解决方案，并结合两种想法来创造一个新的想法。
For example, think of Henry Ford. He gave people automobiles, when at that time, they probably just wanted faster horses!
例如，想想亨利·福特。他给人们提供汽车，而在那个时候，人们可能只是想要更快的马!
And, then there is Elon Musk. He found a workable solution to the problem of congested roads in towns and cities — the Hyperloop! This is an underground tunnel system that is designed to connect major conurbations using clean, ultra-fast capsules that can carry passengers, cars and freight. In the case of cars — Musk envisages elevators taking the cars down to the tunnel system. Ingenious.
还有埃隆·马斯克，他找到了一个可行的方法来解决城镇道路拥挤的问题——超级高铁!这是一个地下隧道系统，设计用来连接大城市，使用干净、超高速的太空舱，可以运送乘客、汽车和货物，就汽车而言，马斯克设想用电梯把汽车巧妙地送到隧道系统。
As a final example, I want to tell you about Saltwater Brewery in Florida. They’ve created six-pack rings that are edible by marine life. So instead of the six-pack rings ending up in the ocean and killing sea creatures, these rings actually feed them. They’re made from the by-products of beer brewing, and contain either barley or wheat, and are not just safe for fish to eat — but humans can eat them too!
最后一个例子，我想告诉你佛罗里达州的盐水啤酒厂。他们发明了放六个罐子的环状物，可供海洋生物食用。结果是，这些罐子里的食物并没有最终进入海洋并杀死海洋生物，而是为它们提供了食物。它们是由啤酒酿造的副产品制成的，含有大麦或小麦，不仅对鱼类是安全的，人类也可以食用它们!
