Jim Rohn said “Reading is essential for those who seek to rise above the ordinary.” There are different questions raised about being creative, whether it is inborn or if this skill can be developed over time. In the age whereby numerous ideas and operations are being measured and executed in lieu to the standard and status quo of each society, to stand out, you have to be able to think differently searching inside the box.

Well, I will definitely say that some people are more gifted than others, but everyone can develop their creative thinking abilities and potentials. One of the solid-proven approach that has been put into experiment countless times is reading books. Exceptionally, we compiled few number of books about creativity, which can help in boosting skills in our various fields.
