　　It is never too late to tap our creative potential. Some of us, however, find it difficult to think in (40) imaginative and flexible ways because of our set (41) pattern of approaching problems. When we are inflexible in our approach to situations, we close our minds to creative (42) possibilities.

　　Being creative doesn’t necessarily mean being a (43) genius. It means looking at situations in a new way or putting something together in a new form that makes sense. (44)Spontaneity is one of the key elements of creativity.

　　If you were to ask someone, “What’s half of eight?” and received the answer “zero,” you might laugh and say “That’s wrong!” (45)But the figure 8 can be visualized as two zeros, one on top of the other, or it can also be seen as two 3s standing face to face.

　　The ability to visualize our environment in new ways opens our perspective and allows us to make all kinds of discoveries. (46)If each of us asked the question “why” more often and investigated “other” alternatives to problem solving, our lives would be more interesting and exciting.
