"To be creative, return to the innocence of a child: embrace playfulness, risk the unknown, and let go of the fear of looking foolish. True creativity blossoms in the freedom to wander and experiment without the constraints of certainty."
According to Osho, to be creative, become a child again: drop mind-made certainties, borrowed knowledge, and social respectability. Give yourself freedom to play, try the new—and even the 'wrong'—without fear of looking foolish. Don’t be a efficient 'robopath' producer; wander, risk, learn from detours. Creativity flowers in innocence, experimentation, and courage to defy the right way.
Be playful and brave like a child—experiment, make 'mistakes,' and ignore what others expect—then new ideas will come.
