2.Although everyone has a creative side and a logical side,some people find it a challenge to get in touch with their creative side.Being creative means being prepared to think of new and original ways to do things.Here are some ways to help you get in touch with your creative side.
When you want to be creative,it's very important to relieve any tension from your body so that your mind can be open to new experiences and not be occupied with dealing with tension or stress.It's possible to relax very quickly if you take three or four deep breaths.In the relaxed state you pick up a pen and start to write down all the potential ways that you could take to achieve what you want.You might find that you would like to use paints instead or a musical instrument to express your new found creativity and explore where it leads you.
Once you are fully relaxed,you can begin to think about the project you are attempting to complete and allow your mind to wander over various possibilities rather than immediately going for the obvious logical way to do it.Close your eyes and ask yourself  what ways there might be to solve your project and notice the scenarios ( 设想) which appear in your mind as you do  this.You may notice pictures,sounds or emotions or a combination of all three.Then imagine yourself moving into the scenario that you are thinking about and then discover what might or might not work for you and others.Be aware of any emotions that come up when you visit the various scenarios.Keep a notebook handy to write down your experiences and insights as a result of your visualization (可视化).
It's easy to dismiss unusual or different solutions which you haven't tried before but it's important to be prepared to experiment and play with them.Sometimes  what is needed is just doing something even if you are uncertain of the potential outcome.People often think of all the possible ways that something won't work and as a result they dismiss the idea of performing an experiment to see what would happen.The reality is that we can't foretell the future,so it's useful to plan for it in a creative and exciting new way.

1.Have you ever heard of an old saying?Intelligence is a born ability while goodness is a choice.Gifts are easy-they're given after all.Choice can be hard.
I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago.I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2300 percent per year.I'd never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast,and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me.I had just turned 30 years old,and I'd been married for a year.I told my wife MacKenzie that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn't work since most start-ups don't and I wasn't sure what to expect.MacKenzie told me I should go for it.As a young boy,I'd been a garage inventor.I'd always wanted to be an inventor,and she wanted me to follow my passion.   
I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired.I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet.He took me on a long walk in Central Park,listened carefully to me,and finally said,"That sounds like a really good idea,but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn't already have a good job."That logic made some sense to me,and he convinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision.Seen in that light,it really was a difficult choice,but finally,I decided I had to give it a shot.I didn't think I'd regret trying and failing.And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all.
After much consideration,I took the less safe path to follow my passion,and I'm proud of that choice.For all of us,in the end,we are our choice.
