        Can you become a creative person? Can you learn to come up with great ideas or learn to create new things? The answer is yes.

        The first step to becoming creative is to remove the words "I am not creative" from your vocabulary. Seriously, do not say them or do not say them even inside your head.

        Now you need to start looking at what other people are doing. The more you see what they are doing, the more you can get a feel for how they think, and how they come up with creative ideas.

        Find a way or a place where you feel totally relaxed. This is important and you can let your mind come up with ideas there. Write them down as you get them. For me a relaxing place is outside in nature where it is quiet and sunny, or when I take a long drive in my car by myself.

        The last step is to write down a few ideas every day.

        Repeat the process of reading and observing what similar people are doing and how they are being creative, finding a relaxing place to write down your thoughts, and writing down a few ideas every day until you start seeing the kind of results you are happy with. It may take a few weeks to a few months, but this is the training process you need to put your mind through to become creative.

        Remember, looking at things from a different angle can also make a big difference to creativity. Question the way that everyone else is doing something using the same method and see if being different and doing it another way will produce something cool.
