The Sunday Five: Creativity


1: Do you have music playing while you work, write, or create? 

2: Are you a visual or a verbal person? 

3: Do you draw, sketch or doodle? 

4: What inspires you?

5: Do you get more wound up by things that make you happy, or things that make you angry, or do both turn your creative or communicative crank? 

My Answers: 

1: Do you have music playing while you work, write, or create?  Almost always, if the room is quiet, I will turn music on. 

2: Are you a visual or a verbal person? If you meet me, I talk to much, but I am a visual learner. 

3: Do you draw, sketch or doodle? Not much. 

4: What inspires you? Things I see, things I read, 

5: Do you get more wound up by things that make you happy, or things that make you angry, or do both turn your creative or communicative crank? Both wind me up, I try to let the anger dissipate on it's own without letting it into my work. 

Please share your answers in the comments.

  2. 1. No. Nowadays I am not much of a music listener and I wouldn't think to do it.
    2. Visual I guess. I retain information better.
    3. I did when I was younger but now I never have a pen or pencil in my hand.
    4. People who do terrific community work, from adoption the running clubs, to visiting old people, to being a volunteer at a hospital to help patients negotiate the building. While people receive awards for not much more than doing their jobs, these people go unrecognised.
    5. You wrote a good description for 5. I'll just say I am similar.

  4. 1: Do you have music playing while you work, write, or create? If it's not playing in the room, it's playing in my head. I wake up every morning with a song in my head, so I am my own jukebox.

    2: Are you a visual or a verbal person? I think I'm both; I can visualize most anything, but I can also chatter on endlessly.

    3: Do you draw, sketch or doodle? All of that.

    4: What inspires you? Good people, kind people; decent people. And cats.

    5: Do you get more wound up by things that make you happy, or things that make you angry, or do both turn your creative or communicative crank? Anger gets me wound up, but happiness keeps me calm.

  10. 1: Do you have music playing while you work, write, or create? No. I like peace and quiet when I create or write.
    2: Are you a visual or a verbal person? I would say that I am both.
    3: Do you draw, sketch or doodle? Yes I do. Just can't stop myself. I wish I had saved all my doodles from years back.
    4: What inspires you? It can be anything depending on my state of receptivity.
    5: Do you get more wound up by things that make you happy, or things that make you angry, or do both turn your creative or communicative crank? I get wound up by things that make me angry and sometimes that can lead to a creative sidetrack. But the same might be said of happy things.
