Intelligence Over Creativity. by Missmossy(op): 10:28pm On Jul 24, 2014
We often hear people say i like that man,he is so creative. Does that make him stand out? On the otherhand,its no news to see that people who we consider brainy seem to be recognised and praised on daily basis. Which do you think is worth it?
Re: Intelligence Over Creativity. by Nobody:
This is a tough one. But I think creativity is a standout of intelligence. So you've got to be intelligent to be creative. undecided

Okay check this puzzle out. Intelligent peeps will only read this, while creative peeps will understand this.

2+2 =Fish
3+3= Eight
7+7= Triangle

Creativity is the deal here I think..... The ability to conjure something out of nothing.... Quite a puzzling one though... A creative mind is sine-qua-non to an intelligent mind...

You may be intelligent and end up not being creative. The attribute of being intelligent are sometimes innate, but they are related to environmental factor.

An intelligent man is someone who follows lay down principle to solve human problem, while a Creative man is someone who puzzle a solution when the lay down principle aiint bringing result.

From the look of things, I am creative man for getting you of this confusion(question) bothering your mind. Am I not huh?grintonguewink

When you are creative you are intelligent, but being intelligent does not match creativity. Creativity is the key cheesy

Creativity is a natural instinct but intelligence can be developed... One who is creative can build on intelligence but one who is intelligent might lack creativity and can't develop it... I think creativity gets the nod here.. smiley

I think both go pari-passu but most times we get to see that not every intelligent person will be creative in the long run.

Same way,a creative person who has innovative ideas might not be good in terms of academics. Sometimes,people can't have them all.

They are both types of genius. Neither supercedes. And like the saying goes, if u judge a fish's intelligence by its ability to climb a tree, it will spend its entire life unemployed, or some shitt like that, I don't give a fucck, I'm just awake by 4am. Shitt

I'm sure you have to be intelligent to be creative.

Are you asking whether you have to be creative to be intelligent?. Yes. Cause you can't have one without the other.

Both are very important in their own ways
Creativity adds colour to life while being Smart is important in dealing with the day to day challenges life throws at us.

Re: Intelligence Over Creativity. by Nobody: 5:32am On Sep 04, 2014
smiley one can't be creative by being an insufferable blockhead whether he received basic education or not. Creativity is the end product of intelligence, but i may be erroneous.
Re: Intelligence Over Creativity. by slimpoppa(m): 5:33am On Sep 04, 2014
To be creative, you first have to be intelligent. So I give it to creativity.
