Agreed! If I get a writing prompt, I do better than if I can write about literally anything

This means for out of box creativity it should be within the box....🤔😇

[@bbcideas]

🤔

[@bibekpawn6175]

more than that, for out of box creativity, totally limit yourself from everything or any influences from inside the box

I've had enough adversity - about forty years ago. I want stability, security, and comfort from now on. I, in fact, do a lot better in stability, security, and comfort.

I think conformity is meant here as opposite to procrastination which has nothing to do with your state.

[@workman122]

I absolutely agree, as a starting point the bbc should introduce a limit on the number of youtube channels it has. Instead of....."hey we've got loads of exploited taxpayers money, what can we spend it on?" Maybe focus on a bare essentials news service without public funding and maybe even try making one without bias. That way lots of the british public wouldn't feel like you are stealing money from them to satisfy a small minority.

[@luigipati3815]

anybody who learned grammar can write a book. The question is how many can write a GREAT book. Anybody can learn to draw: childrens do it. But how many can draw great things? Anyone can learn 3 chords on guitar, but very few will end up writing great songs. You confuse the means with the ends, and then you conclude that talent "is a misconception ". Study some music history, find out what Schumann said about Brahms or Chopin. When you get a great musician writing in a article that this Chopin guy is a genius, it's very hard to believe that talent is a misconception. It's like Einstein saying of someone else that he's a genius, when they had absolutely nothing to gain from such declaration. Haydn, a master musician, took aside Mozart's father when Mozart was a child, and said: "Sir, your son is the greatest composer known to me in person or by name.". Stop going around saying that talent is a myth, or make believe that everyone and their dog can write like Shakespeare....the rest of us are very skeptical, with good reason. Nothing wrong with giving things a try, but don't spread myths yourself about talent (I am not speaking about myself, although I have been told I have talent too by very experienced musicians and music teachers, but that's not the point. You can assume I have no talent, I don't care, but don't tell me Tchaikovsky's talent was a myth). On one thing you are right: great things can be created with constraints. But talent is a separate issue, it has nothing to do with constraints or the lack of them.

I have heard about this myth about how talent is a myth, a million times, and always by people who never witnessed it themselves. Do yourself a favour, go ask some very experienced piano teachers if talent is a misconception, all of them have had the one student who made in 6 months as much progress as others have in 6 years. And don't tell me that the latter practiced less. The question here isn't if there's a single gene for talent, but if it exists. You can deny it all you like, but there's 8 year old kids who barely started learning reading, who can read music scores better than anyone else. Check out Alma Deutscher, for example. Hard work is NOT a substitute for talent: I have a pile of music theory books written by top musicians and music theorists (they were both) and they all said the same things. What Gladwell wrote about the Beatles "practicing" is rubbish, the Beatles wrote songs with 3 chords. Why isn't everybody else doing these things? Why do people give up on stuff? They aren't stupid. Talent isn't a misconception; yours is.
