Creativity And Talent
No books on quotes to bring for now, and no 10 million dollars to show. May I have the two please
It is said that two poles never meet, the two halves of the brain, the left one and the right one never work in unison, and creativity and talent are never in equal proportions. You find artists who have an amazingly high level of creativity, and a great sense of aesthetics. However, that same person may see stars the moment he or she is asked to work with simple numbers. On the same lines, bean counters are rarely known to have appreciated colors on a canvas. However, the problem lies in the fact that creativity and talent are both important to ensure success- important to the extent of being critical.
You will rarely find a job profile that needs only talent, or IQ, and no creativity. Even the most ‘number oriented’ job profile, that of a scientist requires creativity. It’s a misconception which people have harbored their mind from time immemorial that scientist and other science related field do not require creativity. It’s because like many other artist a scientist also creates something out of nothing. Any act of creation obviously requires creativity on the part of the creator, whether he/she is a scientist, or an artist that does not matter. Every body needs creativity along with talent and IQ.

Why Is Productivity In The Workplace Important
If you run a business, there is no doubt or question that productivity is extremely important to keeping things running smoothly. But why is productivity so important? Can lack of productivity really harm a business? Take a look at these reasons…
1. Get more things done in shorter amounts of time. Without a high level of productivity, it is nearly impossible to get as much work done as necessary. High productivity leads to increased performance.
2. Everyone will be much happier. Happy people lead to high job performance. But when you mix discontented people with the workplace, you usually end up with decreased production and extremely large amounts of mistakes. High productivity means happier employers, which means happier employees.
3. Energy begets energy. Have you ever noticed how people who are happy and full of energy gets lots more accomplished in a shorter amount of time? That’s because they are motivated to get their work done, so it becomes a pleasure, rather than “work.” Energetic people become more productive, thus leading to greater turnover and higher quality work.
