To create highly engaging content you have to get a little creative.
Creative people know it’s a myth that only highly intelligent people are creative. In fact, research shows that once you get beyond an I.Q. of about 120, which is just above average, intelligence and creativity are not at all related. That means that even if you’re no smarter than most people, you still have the same potential to be creative.
So how do you become more creative? The answer is simple: By practicing and using your imagination, just like you would a muscle. The more you use it, the stronger it gets. And the stronger it gets, the easier it becomes to come up with new ideas.
The good news is that there are certain habits that creative people have in common. And by adopting these habits, you can increase your own creativity. Here are some of the most important ones:
- They’re not afraid to fail.
- They embrace change.
- They take risks.
- They keep learning.
- They think outside the box.
- They daydream.
- They’re persistent.
- They have a strong work ethic.
These are the characteristics of creatives. However, there are also tried and true ways and techniques that will work, even if you perhaps don’t think of yourself as a the creative type, per se. In other words, anyone can create engaging content, if you just put your mind to it, and follow the steps below. There is work involved, but it can also be loads of fun! So have at it, and get started creating your own engaging content!
