Surviving the economy with creative thinking.

[MarjorieZimmermanGinger]

It has come to a point where humans can’t just seat and watch things happen for themselves. As humans leaving in this kind of economy where things are not getting easier, we have to employ the art of creative thinking skills. It is clearly seen that to survive in today’s world. You must be creative in your thinking. The world is a global village that is changing rapidly. Humans must be innovative in their ideas and should produce different techniques. Which can be implemented in order to develop commodities and create a competitive edge.this is to say creative thinking plays a prominent role in today’s world.

In conditions like this we need to increase our ability to control ourselves, in other words increasing skills and abilities will pave the way for us to make the best decisions. The current economic condition of society is quite disturbed so that it will be difficult to increase income than usual and what is quite problematic if in conditions like this we do not have individual skills because there is no opportunity to develop potential. Humans need creative ideas, able to compete and have the ability to see future potential, both in business and other things.

I see that there are only a few opportunities available to people who don't dare to take risks and now to increase our wealth we have to balance it with the capital we spend, both in business and in any investment. Without taking risks we will only be in the comfort zone and it will be quite difficult to develop our potential.

Global village is an interesting concept, but it doesn't necessarily represent the world we currently live in. I think it's more of an illusion of the global village, because it feels as if we're all connected online and there are no barriers to our communication, but in practice, people tend to talk to those that share their views, tons of people are not online at all, and there are a lot of discussions of social isolation in the world of the Internet.
As for creating thinking, there are just too many ways to understand that. But overall, I agree that creativity is useful in life, and perhaps useful in the global economy, excluding places where you can get in jail or be killed on the street for your creativity, and you need to stick to the rules to survive.

creative thinking

decades ago people living in villages, countrysides only had local town populations to cater to. so volume of customers was limited.
now with the internet and international postage.. the world is open. you just have to find the right product to sell, even if it only captures 0.001% of the worlds eyes, out of 8 billion that is still 80,000 customers.. and if you only make $2 thats $160k

as for surviving in your own home on a fixed salary income.
being creative can be as easy as upgrading house lighting from 100w incandescent bulbs to 8w LED
do you need the $20 delivered pizza or can you have a $4 store bought pizza
do you need the new top brand 4wheel drive 4ltr engine truck/sports car just to drive around town. or can you do with a small fuel efficient second hand car

just buying your first choice is not a choice nor creative. always look for other choices by thinking creatively about other options. and never go with first choice as thats usually the dreamy want, not the basic need

Humans have always been creative and we can see that through the technological advancement we have experienced over the years. The economic situation of many countries is becoming very bad and to survive these problems it is important to think outside of the box. Creativity is seeking ways to make a product cheaper but still effective. In this current economic situation, we have to be creative to cut costs and seek ways to also gain more income.

In my location agriculture was neglected because of the discovery of crude. However, due to the current economic woes, many people have started embracing small-scale agriculture which will enable them to grow their food. There has also been a high decline in wasteful celebrations like elaborate weddings, burials, birthdays, graduation, etc because people are creatively cutting costs.

From my observation, many people in developing nations are creative because you need this quality to survive hardship. It is the creativity of these people that is making them survive the harsh economic conditions that they have been subjected to by wicked leaders. Our leaders have failed to be creative in devising ways of tackling the rising economic problems most of these developing nations are going through. But in terms of bribery, corruption and stealing they are fantastically creative.

Has there ever be a time in which this was not true? Even if we go back to the early days of civilization in which humans still had to hunt their food if they wanted to eat, the hunter that just waited for their prey was most likely a hungry hunter.

If you wanted to have an edge back in those days, you needed to figure out the patterns of your prey so you could hunt it, tell me is it that much different from what you need to do these days? Not really, as if you want to earn more than enough to survive then you need to find a way to provide for a need others have and address it in a way that is unique to your current location.

Yeah, this is the reality nowadays if we don't have this creative thinking there is a higher chance to not survive crisis we met along our path into the future. Pandemic has proven this already wherein majority of countries and it's people have suffered significant loss in it's economy and personal lives. People who has creative thinking skills take the pandemic as an opportunity to make money and even get rich because they are smart enough to find solutions to the worldwide problem and this left people like me who did nothing lead into misery because of unpreparedness or not having the said skill.

In being creative you need to think outside the box, also there are a lot of factors that enhances creativity in a society. However there must be prevailing circumstances within your country that will enable you to think outside the box or be creative. if you live in a society where there is stability in economy and there is high level of peaceful coexistence, the need for you to start being creative and wanting to seek for extra sources of income wouldn't be there.
So your creativity and idealistic skills can only be realistic in a situation where the circumstances and challenges surrounding you are  enormous hence the need to create an extra source of income will come into play.  however not everybody can relate to your line of thought because every society has its own peculiar challenges, which makes the citizens to know how to navigate around it for survival.

You can be creative and still doesn't see yourself being in right place you want to be, not being sceptical but let's stands on fact, there many part of the world that does not support dreams and no matter skillful you are, if you don't have people or means of pushing your dreams and financing yourself in achieving what you prayed for, you can never achieve it, though creating more means to earn money has always been the talk of the day but in recent time having a means of survival is very difficult talk more of creating extra source, am not trying to say that it is totally impossible for this to happen but am judging from the economic situation of most countries, for anyone to survive now, you really have to give some thing different from what is trending or in place for people to think of think your in your direction.

I agree that creative thinking is crucial for competitiveness. It allows us to generate new, innovative ideas and solutions. However, combining it with critical thinking is even more powerful. For example, creative thinking can spark a multitude of possibilities, while critical thinking helps us discern the most effective and feasible ones. Additionally, creative thinking fosters a risk-taking spirit, and critical thinking equips us to navigate those risks wisely. This synergy allows us to approach challenges with both imagination and reason, ultimately leading to better outcomes.

[retreat]

I agree that creative thinking is needed now to be able to survive in a difficult economy like today. But the problem is how can you want to think outside the box when you don't have anything to eat tomorrow. You can't think that your thoughts will make you a millionaire, but you don't have money in your hands. Because you can only have creative thinking when you have resources that you can manage - when you don't have anything that you can use, the most important thing is to think realistically about what you are facing right now.

The reality check everyone needs: Creativity fights economic collapse, not just tools. You saw small-scale agriculture grow and wasteful spending shrink. Definitely commendable. But don't celebrate yet. Making money is different from cutting expenditures. That's the difficult part, right? Focus on personal money should change from survival to prosperity. Gardening and cutting out on celebrations aren't enough. Investments? Savings? Diversifying earnings? Creativity must flourish here. I know our leaders are mismanagers, but that's why you want them to lead

We may use your ingenuity to build a future after overcoming adversity. Improve, not just survive. Think big, plan ahead, and remember that creative people will thrive in a world that encourages invention

The system is no longer working like before and that's because even the humans are evolving. Between 60s and 90s, schools and education are regarded are the bridge between making a future for yourself or become a menace to the society, people were encourage to go to school because you dream of becoming an engineer and after spending the time and struggle, the dream comes true for many people. However, today reverse is the case for many of people, going to school to get a good life doesn't work like before, so many people don't even become what they study in school.

The jobs are not even encouraging where your salary is not enough to get you a dream house and average house, you have to add a hustle with an additional skills to survive the economy. Some professions still pay well but they are limited and even before you get to that level where you will be paid so much money, you must have done many years of services with white beards everywhere, no wonder we have a lot of Musicians, Tiktokers, Youtubers and Content creators and all are because to earn a good living, the world is rapidly changing from what we use to know.

Creative thinkers will always find a way to survive in any kind of economic situation and in any place. The economy of many countries require creativity to be able to still make money, by offering creative solution to problems people are facing and making money from it. Creative thinkers are also needed by companies in this difficult time, creative people are needed for important positions, to suggest better methods for the company, and improve their profit.  If you are a creative thinker, your chances of survival already have greatly improved.

In today's world, your certificate from school as a degree, master's, or even PhD holder will not suffice to enter the global market. They also require your expertise and creative thinking to make things work for them. Nobody is just looking for the certificate anymore; your creative thinking can take you much further than your certificate can. Some schools no longer leverage on practicals that are compulsory is some practical courses, instead focusing on theoretical aspects. As a result, the majority of graduates in those fields are unable to apply the skills acquired during their course of study when employed in an organisation or company where the skills are required. While going through school, if theirs a means to diversify your means of learning, get some skills that will help you in the future even when your school certificate haven’t come through for you yet.

I agree that creative thinking is needed now to be able to survive in a difficult economy like today. But the problem is how can you want to think outside the box when you don't have anything to eat tomorrow. You can't think that your thoughts will make you a millionaire, but you don't have money in your hands. Because you can only have creative thinking when you have resources that you can manage - when you don't have anything that you can use, the most important thing is to think realistically about what you are facing right now.

What shocked me the most was that I went to the market to get some things and the prices I saw made me cold because they were so expensive, and I was like, how are things going this way? Whatever price goes up does not come down, and inflation is worsening the situation, so I've been thinking of alternatives to survive, and if they even have families, how will it be for them. Hummm, survival is now on grace with the way food prices are rising. It is something to think about, and my question now is what the government is there for; they don't even care about the people anymore.

And even finding work these days is challenging because many companies are closing down due to the economy, and I see how young people are doing everything in their power to survive these difficult times. For this reason, sometimes I disagree with those who criticize gamblers because you never know what people are going through; everyone is just trying to get by.

I can't agree with you less. I think today the world is all about creative thinking. It's all about thinking without a box, not even outside the box any longer, because there is literally no box out there for you to think on. Today, the world is driven by ideas, striving by creativity and innovation. It's all about what you can think out of what is already in existence and fashion it in a way that is going to be beneficial to the people using technology.

The world experienced the era of the Industrial Revolution, which marked the transition between the predominantly agrarian era and the handicrafts period to the period where people began to use manufactured machines to make their work easier during the 18th century.

An example was during the farming period when all people knew how to do was to farm with their hands, with hoes and cutlasses. But then there was a time when all those things transitioned to tractors and tillage machines that came in as farming implements or equipment, which are still used today. Other inventions included the spinning jenny by James Hargreaves in 1764 and the steam engine by James Watt in 1776. Ever since, these machines have been redesigned to function more effectively and efficiently.

Around 2008 - 2009, there was a major development that the world faced in the economy industry, which was a facelift from the usual hard currencies that we were using, which you can also call fiat, to the newly invented digital currency, which was Bitcoin, invented by Satoshi Nakamoto.

 He is another inventor and a creative thinker that history must recount with because he has brought about an alternative to the centralized currency that the world is suffering today. Thereby having a situation where one currency would be dominant in the international offering market, also known as the forex market, popularizing the use of the currency above other currencies and creating scarcity around it, which makes it difficult for other developing currencies. An example of that is the internationalization of the dollar currency.

This is just one example of many other examples why the centralized currency is a problem. Another thing is the government can decide to make it difficult for enormous citizens to use the currency against their own wish, of which I think at this point it is necessary for us to classify money as an essential commodity which each and every person should own. It should have some level of independence around the use of currencies. However, that is not the case in the centralized market.

I think the advent of decentralized technology was timely. It came at a time when people needed to have some level of ownership and independence in the inflow and outflow of currencies, and therefore Bitcoin was a salvation to the situation of the fiat.

This has been the story since the beginning of time and it is not a new one. The most creative and resourceful people in life have always had a tendency to prosper more than those who do the bare minimum or expect an easy life to be to be handed to them. The world and business are constantly evolving over time, some jobs that might have existed 50 years have been wiped out of existence. Other jobs will move overseas where laws might be less strict and globalization means that companies can get cheaper workers, but it still benefits richer countries who are constantly progressing forward too. There is nothing new about any of this, these cycles have happened many times over centuries of human history.

God has guaranteed the sustenance of every human being and living creature in the heavens and the earth – but without effort, you will only die of hunger. There is no such thing as someone who is lazy becoming rich because of their lazy behavior - it is very impossible if they do not change their behavior.

This world is cruel - you will forever be poor with no work and no one will care. Financial stability will not be achieved without work, investment and good financial management. So never stop learning and keep working.

[freedomgo]

I must say having this creative thinking nowadays is certainly a must have. However, one should not only end there because without proper analysis and good application, everything will be meaningless. My point is build your own knowledge and develop some certain skills that will make you profitable, so that you will provide a sustainable source of income despite of the threats of our present downturn economy.

One should not rely only on one job, but will continue to acquire side hustles. If you continue doing that, you will still be productive and profitable even if majority are losing and suffering from poverty.

[Assface16678]

You will notice that many people are being shown and introduced on the internet; in short, they are showing off their skills and creativity on social media first just to share, but eventually, if people take a liking to their creativity, they will be famous and end up being a content creator, which can be a source of income. In this modern world, thinking outside the box is a must because everything is almost already there, so it's an advantage if people have unique and different ideas in terms of different aspects of life, especially in business. Almost all businesses now are the same, but you will also notice those unique businesses because of the owner's creativity. Creativity means money, and of course it can be subject to entertainment. In these days, you will need to be unique to survive, to take advantage of your talent, and to be the first to benefit from the ideas you have.

[mirakal]

In a country where economy is being compromised and at risk, having the potential of a creative thinker will save them and will help them lessen their struggles in uplifting their own economy. So I really believe that with creative thinking and with good application skills, everything will perform just right. Although we can’t expect that every citizen will act as a responsible and a resourceful one, but if majority will adopt creativity and resourcefulness, I guess it’s highly possible to see a country turns into progressive and highly profitable one.
