Creativity in an inspirational process in which one responds to a creative source. It is not a forced process. We don't make it happen. We put ourselves in a receptive state. Either the creative inspiration comes, or it does not. We don't control that. The creative sources from ancient times have been known as muses, divinities, and more recently as the archetypes of the collective unconscious (the gods of old).

There are many fields of creative action: the fine arts, the sciences, theory building, business development, ecological and educational projects. One may have creative talents or gifts.
