It has occurred to me that, despite all of my efforts to promote creativity, there just might be people who think they are not creative. That would be a disaster. Just in case, I devised a list of 13 questions. As I ask them, keep track of how times you answer, “yes.” Here we go.

• Have you ever laughed at a joke?
• Ever dimmed the lights in a room to create an effect?
• Ever made up a quick lie to save your skin?
• Do you doodle?
• Do you remember faces better than names?
• Do you sometimes try to persuade with emotional ploys?
• Can you sense another person’s mood?
• Have you ever played a practical joke?
• Ever sing in the shower?
• Take a walk in the woods for no reason?
• Have you ever lost your... (where was I?) ...train of thought?
• Ever played with kids and enjoyed it?
• Do you ever wish you had become a rock star?

That’s it. Easy, wasn’t it? You see, these are things that creative people do.

If you answered "yes" to every question, you should be doing something creative for a living. And you probably are. If didn’t answer “yes” to any of them... Quick! Grab a toilet plunger in one hand, a feather duster in the other, put a paper bag over your head, run outside, and act like a chicken.

But if you answered "yes" to at least one question, at least you know your right brain works.
