  Train your potential: Creativity is a skill, not a gift. Are creative geniuses born or made? For a long time, we have associated genius with an almost mystical talent, reserved for a few exceptional people. However, more and more studies and experiences show that creativity is not a fixed gift, but a skill that can be trained. Thinking and acting like a creative genius does not mean having brilliant ideas every minute, but developing an open, disciplined and curious mindset. To help you strengthen that way of thinking, we have prepared a free downloadable guide with practical tools to train your creative potential and apply it to your personal or professional projects. What you'll find in the free download? The resource "How to Think and Act Like a Creative Genius" brings together a selection of principles and exercises designed to activate your creative thinking in a conscious and structured way. Inside the PDF you will find: - Principles of creative thinking that will help you question the established, observe from new perspectives and generate unexpected connections. - Concrete techniques to overcome blockages, such as changing context, reformulating problems or using constraints as a creative impulse. - b]Practical exercises to cultivate perseverance, curiosity and productivity, the keys to turn ideas into real results. It is not about passing inspiration, but about training mental habits that allow you to sustain creative processes in the long term.
