recover their creative talents.

Updated to accommodate recent changes to the education system

(internationally), and to include more recent examples and case

studies

Focus of the book shifted to give more international examples and

In my experience, many, perhaps most peoplehave no idea of their real capabilities and talents. premise is thatwe are all born with immense natural talents but that too fewpeople discover what they are and even fewer develop themproperly. Ironically one of the main reasons for this massivewaste of talent is the very process that is meant to develop iteducation

First, human intelligence is profoundly and uniquely creative. We live in a world that's shaped by the ideas, beliefs and values of human imagination and culture. The human world is created out of our minds as much as from the natural environment. Thinking and feeling are not simply about seeing the world as it is, but having ideas about it, and interpreting experience to give it meaning. Different communities live differently according to the ideas they have and the meanings they experience. In a literal sense, we create the worlds we live in. We can also re-create them. The great revolutions in human history have often been brought about by new ideas: by new ways of seeing that have shattered old certainties. This is the essential process of cultural change.

Second, realizing our creative potential is partly a question of finding our medium, of being in our element(LZ注：在这里作者将in our element斜体了，可能与Robinson 2008年写的另一本书有关，书名叫The element：How finding your passion changes everything). Education should help us to achieve this, but too often it does not and too many people are instead displaced from their own true talents. They are out of their element and out of their minds in that sense.

Finally, there is a kind of mania driving the present direction of educational policy. In place of a reasoned debate about the strategies that are needed to face these extraordinary changes, there is a tired mantra bout raising traditional academic standards. These standards were designed for other times and for other purposes - as I will explain. We will not succeed in navigating the complex environment of the future by peering relentlessly into a rear-view mirror. To stay on this course we should be out of our minds in a more literal sense.

To answer these questions it is important to be clear about what creativity is and how it works in practice. There are three related ideas, which I will elaborate as we go on. They are imagination, which is the process of bringing to mind things that are not present to our senses; creativity, which is the process of developing original ideas that have value, and innovation, which is the process of putting new ideas into practice.

人生不是直线的，只要识真聆听内心的指引，你就能创造新机会，遇到各式各样的人，拥有各式各样的经验，静儿创造一个精彩的人生。
