What is the difference between creativity and innovation? When searching two words in the dictionary, it is clear that these two words are confused and sometimes used as synonyms. So here I found some definitions, I hope you find it useful.
Creativity is the creation of different ideas than to know everything, you already are. Innovation is where ideas are renewed or upgraded and is something new in the world and has a value that someone wants and wants to obtain.
First, ideas are developed, and then there is a search to see if anyone else already thinking about it. And finally, there is research to see if someone finds the courage and willingness to buy. Sometimes, the last step from the idea of making the sale and proof of the inventor and developer of an early success.
Sometimes the idea is brought directly to market; because the developer believes that the best evidence and not allow competitors a chance to steal the idea.
Creative ideas can occur consistently and in abundance, can occur despite the sudden inspiration, and idea generation is more predictable, if you have many opportunities for reflection and a book of ideas across time to reach.
Most of us think that we forget when we have a good idea. After all, if it looks like a good idea, how could I forget? Unfortunately, when you write you can’t forget easily.
You should be in the field notes of both innovation and creativity when I cough, takes a paper notebook or a laptop, a piece of paper towel, or by phone if you can write a note or take a short messages them. They can even leave your number and a message on your answering machine. Leonardo da Vinci was always a small notebook in which he took notes and made drawings of their ideas and thoughts.
It is not uncommon to wake up at night with these bright ideas. If you tried to solve a problem, your brain will keep him in his dreams. Keep a notebook or a notepad, a pencil and a reading lamp or small flashlight on the bedside table. No matter if you feel drowsy, it’s a way to remember this idea in the morning to write, at least enough to write words or phrases you remember he was.
Creativity is to fill the path with many ideas for some of them turn out to be a real innovation funnel.
