You will need to look up some vocabulary.
1) In your home country, how is creative thinking viewed? Think about artists, musicians, and even workplaces. Is creativity accepted or rejected?
2) Do you think creativity is encouraged in school? Do you think it should be encouraged in school? How should it be encouraged?
3) The end of the article says "To live creatively is a choice. You must make a commitment to your own mind and the possibility that you will not be accepted. You have to let go of satisfying people, often even yourself." Do you agree with this statement?
4) Please make a list of your favourite creative people. These could be artists, designers, business people, athletes, etc.
5) Do you have an experience when your creativity was rejected, either by someone else, or by your own brain?
