When it comes to the masters of creation, we oftentimes overlook the time and effort that not only is put into their craft, but also into their minds. With advances in technology and robotics nowadays it seems so simple to throw away the appreciation that should be valued when it comes to originality and quality of creation. Robots of course have made it too easy to fall under the category of derivative. In addition, studies have shown a separation from screens has shown a peak in activity in the right side of the brain, also known as the creative side of the brain. This plays into the process of flow. Flow is a variation of mindfulness, but more in the aspect of creativity. It is the idea/mindset of doing without thought or creating without intentional thought and letting our minds do what they want to without forcing them to go a certain direction of creating. People typically underestimate how much boredom can facilitate this mindset even though many times the critically acclaimed artist, scientists, and philosophers have vouched for this overtime. All in all, the incessant accessibility to screens has made it arduous for one to get to this mindset and we as humans must find a way to get away from screens, be comfortable with boredom and get back to disciplining ourselves into a more . passionate creativity.
