The accepted definition of creativity is production of something original and useful,
對創(chuàng)造力的公認解釋是：創(chuàng)造一些原創(chuàng)的和有用的東西，
and it is commonly thought that creativity occurs on the right side of the brain,
人們通常認為創(chuàng)造力的產(chǎn)出歸功于右腦，
and the arts play an important role in enhancing it.
并且藝術(shù)有助于極大地提升創(chuàng)造力。
But according to a new research, creativity isn't about freedom from concrete facts.
但根據(jù)一項新的研究表明，創(chuàng)造力并不能脫離具體事實自由創(chuàng)造。
Rather, fact-finding is vital in the creative process.
相反，在創(chuàng)作的過程中事實的發(fā)現(xiàn)是至關(guān)重要的，
It's the result of both sides of your brain working together.
是左腦和右腦相互協(xié)作的結(jié)果。
To understand this. we need to take a look at what leads to creativity.
要想理解這一點，我們就要看看創(chuàng)造力產(chǎn)生的過程。
When you try to solve a problem, you begin by concentrating on obvious facts and familiar solutions to see if the answer lies there.
當你試圖解決一個問題時，你首先關(guān)注的便是擺在眼前的事實依據(jù)和通常的解決方案，然后以此來尋找解決問題的辦法。
This is done mostly by the left side. However, if the answer doesn't come, the right and left sides of the brain activate together.
這主要是靠左腦來完成的。但是，如果之后你還沒有找到解決辦法，那么左右腦就會同時被激活。
The right side scans remote memories that could be vaguely relevant.
右腦負責掃描有模糊關(guān)聯(lián)的遠程記憶。
A wide range of distant information that is normally ignored becomes available to the left side.
左腦負責獲取通常會被忽略的大范圍的遠程信息。
Then the left side catches whatever connection it may have with the problem, and quickly locks in on it before it escapes.
然后左腦再負責捕獲可能會與問題有關(guān)的任何連接并在它逃走之前迅速鎖定它。
With extremely focused attention, the brain quickly pulls together these pieces of thought and combines them into a new single idea,
隨著注意力的高度集中，大腦會迅速將這些零散的想法整合成一個新的想法，
as the brain recognizes the originality of what it has come up with, a sense of pleasure will arise.
當大腦分辨出自己產(chǎn)出的創(chuàng)造力時，一種愉悅感會油然而生。
