**creativity and its misconceptions: you can turn on creativity, **

Creativity is often seen as a sacred and elusive trait, but for some, like the speaker, it flows like a faucet. They discuss how most children have an innate ability to generate ideas endlessly, but as they grow older, they learn to suppress their ideas due to fear of being wrong or dumb. However, the speaker never developed this filter and believes they are the ones who haven't been affected by society's pressure to conform.
