Creativity


According to Downe (2005), creativeness is a form of directed thinking applied to the discovery of new solutions to problems, new techniques and devices or new artistic expressions.

As I came across an article written about the Google founders, I can't help but noticed that their creative personality has greatly contributed to their success today.
Google founders, Sergey Brin and Larry Page have in them the 5 pillars of creative genes which consist of dynamic, daring, resourceful, hardworking and independent.


Dynamic.
Both Sergey and Larry are always thinking out of their box. They are often curious and always strive to generate new ideas. In short, they are always out of their comfort zone just so that they can create and fulfill all their visions and ideas. For example, they created Google in 1998 because there wasn't any reliable search engine during that particular period of time. Other than that, Google is constantly coming up with new amazing applications and programs.


Daring
Google founders are indeed one of the most daring entrepreneurs in the world. They started the search engine without a single revenue and fund. However, they were persistent and they went forth with their idea. Their daring characteristic I must say is the greatest contributor to their success today.


Resourceful
Sergey and Larry are always striving to make Google the most resourceful search engine in the world. In fact, in order to fulfill that dream, they hire the best brains in the world so that applications and programs that help to make life much easier.

Hardworking
Without a doubt, Sergey and Larry are very hardworking people. They both started the company with zero money by using the facilities in Stanford University where they were both PHD students. They painstakingly worked until they were funded by Venture Capitalists. Now as a result of their hardworking, Google has become the largest search engine company in the world.


Independent
Both creators are very independent individual. When they first started in Stanford University, they have never relied on anyone but themselves. For example, in order to keep their cost low, they built their own servers to keep the web page running.


Without a doubt, Sergey Brin and Larry Page are two very creative individuals.
