Passage:
Many people believe that creativity is a trait possessed only by artists, writers, or musicians. However, psychologists have increasingly come to view creativity as a general mental ability that can be applied in nearly every field — from business to science, and even in everyday problem-solving. While some people may have a natural inclination toward original thinking, research suggests that creativity is not fixed; it can be developed and enhanced through deliberate effort and practice. 

One surprising finding is that constraints — such as limited time or resources — often boost creativity rather than hinder it. This seems counterintuitive, but researchers argue that boundaries force individuals to think in more flexible and innovative ways. Additionally, the willingness to take risks and embrace failure plays a crucial role. People who view mistakes as learning opportunities are more likely to persist and eventually produce creative outcomes. 

Thus, creativity is not a mysterious talent reserved for a few, but a skill that thrives in challenging situations and grows with experience and mindset.
