WHY NOT YOU?

Sometimes ago, I was discussing with someone on the need for every human being (including the person and myself) to be creative, innovative and productive to further make life and living easy, pleasant, enjoyable and fulfilling across the world.

To buttress my point, I asked; "how would it have been if inventors/creators of all value added services, products and inventions failed to task themselves to deliver such creativity, innovation and solution to human needs when they did - since nobody asked them to do so?

Definitely life would be far difficult than it has ever been but I was shocked to the bone marrow when the person answered: "if they didn't, some other people will do". As correct the answer may be, it is still very shallow because it has an exemption of the person in the task of innovation.

So, I asked; "why are you not among those other people you claimed will invent/create all the things that were created if their inventors/creators didn't?" Then, I waited for a response from the person but there was none.

The truth of the matter is that, very many people around the world shared the same mindset with that person and I hope you are not one of them. Most people feel others should create while they should only consume. They never think about bringing forth new services and products. Even they don't get inspired and propelled to be creative by their most challenging problems and needs in the world.

I put it to you this way; whatever you need/seek that is yet to be, place a demand on you to timely make it available wherever you are instead of complaining and blaming others for its unavailability.

If you expect someone else to invent, why not you? If others had recorded innovations, why can't you? You have not brought forth an invention, innovation and solution because you don't think like it. Perhaps Mark Zuckerberg didn't fixed his mind on connecting people via internet, the world may never witness the birth of Facebook.

I submit; you too can create new things of great value to human life. It will greatly amaze you at your creativity when you unleash your latent creative/innovative ability. All there is is not all that should or could be. To die with those amazing inventions locked up in your loins is sheer wickedness. Just imagine if there is no electricity or internet or aeroplane or modern medicine or ..... Then, imagine what would become of the world if you don't give birth to the best inside you for the benefit of mankind.
