Throughout our lives, we're told that creativity is rare and mysterious and that only artists are creative. After nearly 20 years of laboratory research on the creative process, I've concluded that creativity is within everyone's reach-no exceptions. In recent years I've also successfully applied some of the lessons of the laboratory in real-life settings with children and teachers, parents. Creativity requires a challenge to start a flow of new ideas, and then a way to capture them. New ideas are like fleeting rabbits streaking through consciousness. If you don't grab them quickly, they're usually gone forever. People who are serious about exploring their creative side have learned ways to pay attention to and then to preserve some of their new ideas. They have capturing skills. Artists carry sketchpads. Writers and advertisers carry notepads or pocket computers. Inventors make notes on napkins and candy-bar wrappers-especially inventors of new foods.
