Creativity Changes as We Age
It's a very optimistic view, and may be true in some limited domains and individuals but generally speaking groundbreaking creativity (as opposed to the natural creativity within us all which declines gradually but doesn't necessarily completely disappear as we age) is a property of the young, though it may vary from field to field.e.g. pop music, maths, poetry, physics, etc; you're done by 30. Writers/composers maybe another 10 years or so.I say that not to be negative, but to urge any young readers who feel they have a talent to not be complacent and assume they will be an exception, or that its related to family/financial/work commitments when you see the decline in your heroes and you will just avoid all that.Use it before you lose it!
