A
Some people are thought to be creative and others are not.However we all have the capacity for creativity and it is a vital talent for leaders.Here are three qualities of a creative leader needed for success.
1.Inspiration
In a study of 1,500 practicing managers,the leadership characteristic most called for from leaders was “inspiration”.
People get inspired when their leaders have passion for what they believe in.Passion and inspiration are deeply creative processes.There are no logical routes to inspiration;that's why buisness schools only teach how to do things that have been associated with inspiration.Inspiration is an inner quality,not a product of the intellect.
2.Vision
Having a vision is a highly creative process that draws on our innate(天生的) imagination to build powerful and attractive images of the future.Too often our natural creativity gets suppressed(抑制) sometime when we are young, when our parents,teachers and friends tell us we can't sing,or draw or dance and so on.But to be a leader is to take people to somewhere they don't see yet.Therefore creating a powerful vision has to be a vital element of what the leader does.However,a vision is of little value if it is not expressed.Expression itself is a creative process and connects with passion and inspiration.
3.Playfulness
In a childlike way,playfulness with ideas can break a team out of noncreative tracks and discover innovative solutions that can't be sourced in any other way.To discover E=MC2 Einstein played with the idea of flying in space at the speed of light(like Superman)with his arm fully outstretched holding a small mirror.If a leader does not bring the quality of creativity and playfulness to the team and reward playful behavior,he is likely to prevent the creativity.

Compulsive (强迫性的) shopping is described as out of control and not reasonable.
Compulsive shoppers go out and buy things much more often than other people do.They often buy things they do not need.Many times they will spend over their budget limits and get into deep financial trouble.While someone else will think many times if they can afford this or that thing,compulsive shoppers will have no awareness of the boundaries of a budget.They also often hide the things they have bought in order not to be blamed by other family members.They often refuse to admit their problem and cover up their debts with cheat.
Compulsive shopping usually occurs when a person feels sad,lonely or angry.Shopping will not guarantee more love,or cure the hurts,regrets,stress,and the problems of everyday life.Just the opposite,it eventually may make these feelings worse because of the increased financial problems the person has got from this addiction.Some families even lead to a divorce as compulsive shoppers spend a lot of time away from home.
Treating a shopping addiction requires various approaches.The best thing to start with is to recognize the problem by compulsive shoppers themselves.First of all,they need to stop using their credit cards,and instead, start paying by cash.It might be useful to make a shopping list in order to buy strictly what is needed.And if there is a chance to get attracted it might help to have just some small money and leave the wallet at home.It is also good to ask family and friends for support.And if after all these people still feel out of control,then it is recommended to seek professional advice or a selfhelp group to deal with this problem.

You have probably heard it before,most likely from your English teacher.If you want to become a good writer,read good writing.Unfortunately,you may not have understood what was beneficial to you and even what you were supposed to get from that experience.
As you start reading a book,essay,poem,or story,do so with no thought at all and the experience will improve your writing.Simply read for pleasure to begin with,or to learn.As you progress through the work,think about whether or not it is “easy” reading.Do you become so involved in the subject and flow of the writing that you completely forget a person composed it,or does the composition sometimes call too much attention to itself through words and phrases that seem out of place or unexpected?These latter situations are an opportunity to learn from the writer's mistakes.In fact,the reader should not have to worry about how an author does “his thing”...he should be able to just enjoy and learn.Every time a word strikes you as poorly chosen,stop to consider why it has this effect.Also,do not spend a lot of time analyzing the passage but put more efforts in enjoying it from the whole.
Another thing I do,particularly with nonfiction books,is to select a chapter or section to read as if it is a completely separate work.Once again,read as a common consumer rather than a critic.For learning how words and phrases work together on the most basic level,however,nothing is more suitable than reading poetry.A poet is often attempting to put a book's worth of meaning and feelings into a handful of lines,and every side of the work reflects a very close attention to craft.
As you can see,there is no one single way of reading to improve your writing.The key is not to make it boring.Select authors you admire or like most,and enjoy their works as anyone else would.As long as you are reading,you are improving yourself as a writer.
