As a performing musician who does a lot of Jazz playing, where does one think that creativity came from?<br />It comes from developing the tools necessary to have the skills needed to be creative. Education, and all that goes with it, is the tools one attains for his/her "toolbox." That "toolbox" is what makes it possible for one to build a beautiful full life.<br />Talent is, at most, about 10 percent of being successful at any endeavor. The rest is hard work. It is the DISCIPLINE of learning that is the foundation of creativity. Whether the educational institutions in this country help to engender that foundation is another question.<br />If one wants to be truly successful and be the best they can be then one has to devote the one thing they have plenty of, TIME and the ability to work hard towards their goals.<br />Parents who do not ensure that their children are learning the value of hard work and education are only cheating those children. The children will thank them in the long run. Success is a natural high that is only earned by hard work.Dennishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14962996070458991675noreply@blogger.com
