I find myself in all kinds of creative thinkers, but predominantly in lateral and insprirational.

[shakudoshark]

I think Im systematic and aesthetical thinker. Systematic because I like to research how everything works and aesthetical thinker is because I love drawing and to do digital arts

[Pinkbun]

It's rare for me to be this early! ^-^ Creativity is a beautiful thing! I think I'm an inspirational thinker. I get ideas to write poetry or stories from all kinds of things.

[ArtairMcKinley]

3 out of 5 of these thinking types apply to me; lateral, divergent and Systemic. It depends on the situation or issue at hand where my approach may vary or switch up. The 3 can interchangeably be used in a single scenario if absolutely needed.

[bakkabae]

I might be a Inspirational thinker ! :o

[hetaliatrash]

I used to think I don't have any talents...
Now im applying for a high school that specializes in art and im enrolling for creative writing :)
Im a inspiration thinker. I remember my dreams/ideas without even writing them down I love writing! And thats where I learned I had an talent you may think creative writing is useless but its not its a great way to explore your mind and even ease mental problems. I had depression and Social anxiety I still do but it became easier to handle. Just remember Do what you love!

I often find the solution to a theorem when I'm asleep and wake up all excited.

[kennethmoses]

I’m a #4. I honestly didn’t even know my kind of creativity existed. Thank you for enlightening this extraordinary humble systematic thinker!

[Alex_RD]

I'm an inspirational thinker. I came up with 2 stories with characters of their own. And whenever i feel bored, i start thinking to entertain myself with my stories (i don't really have stories stories, but i do have each characters story, personality and role) and i actually get so entertained with them, that when i go to sleep, i stay awake for as much as i can to just entertain myself with them. And my dream in a future, is create my own animated series with ONE of these stories, or maybe both. I got inspired to create these two "stories" by Five Nights at Freddy's fanmade stories, and zootopia, i know it sounds weird, but my characters just came up out of nowhere with FNAF and zootopia. I'll try to work hard to make my stories become a reality.

Id say the key to being creative is always learning and doing. You have to be familiar with a large swath of the world and how it works

What are the best career choices for someone who is both an asthetic and systematic thinker?
