Creative Awareness

WHAT'S THERE TO BE CYNICAL ABOUT?

Exercise: Imagine you live in your mom’s basement and spend your days writing snarky comments from your anonymous Instagram account. What kind of negative comments can you say about commonly loved subjects? 

Why: A study from the Harvard Business School suggests that blurting out sarcastic remarks-and listening to them-may increase one's ability to think creatively and abstractly. Sarcasm increases creativity for both expressers and recipients. Because you have to peel back the layers of the satirical remarks, your brain forces itself to analyze and interpret different possible meanings behind the comments - increasing ingenuity and creative problem-solving skills.

Enhances Creative Awareness which includes fine-tuning alertness to aesthetics, empathy, and drinking the world around you.
