In America we are raised to appreciate the accomplishments of inventors and thinkers—creative people whose ideas have transformed our world. We celebrate the famously imaginative, the greatest artists and innovators from van Gogh to Steve Jobs. Viewing the world creatively is supposed to be an asset, even a virtue. Online job boards burst with ads recruiting "idea people" and "out of the box" thinkers. We are taught that our own creativity will be celebrated as well, and that if we have good ideas, we will succeed.
It’s all a lie. This is the thing about creativity that is rarely acknowledged: Most people don’t actually like it. Studies confirm what many creative people have suspected all along: People are biased against creative thinking, despite all of their insistence otherwise. We celebrate creative people, but the thing we celebrate is the after-effect.
选项
答案
在美国,我们从小受到的教育是要赏识发明家和思想家的成就——是这些充满创造性的人的创意改变了我们的世界。我们尊崇梵高、史蒂夫?乔布斯等想象力丰富的著名艺术家和创新者。能以创造性的眼光审视世界被视为一项优点,甚至是一种美德。网上的招聘广告全是要招收“创意人士”或“突破思维常规”的员工。我们受到的教导认为,我们自己的创意会受到他人的赞美;如果我们有好主意,我们就会获得成功。 这些全是谎话。关于创意这件事,人们很少承认的是:大多数人其实并不喜欢它。研究证实了很多有创造性的人一直怀疑的事情:尽管一再否认。但人们事实上对创造性思维怀有偏见。我们颂扬有创造性的人,但我们实际上颂扬的是他们创造的效应。
