Anna Baker, 11 p.m., London, United Kingdom
Parents can be very convincing, right? I’ve been constantly advised to consider the pros and cons
before making decisions and never to follow my instincts. When I was about to graduate from high
school, my mother told me to study business administration in college because I was supposed to take
over our family business. Then, in the year after I graduated, I told her that I had made a horrible decision;
therefore, I needed to go after my real passion. I wanted to make a difference, help people, save lives,
which is very important to me. I wasn’t cut out for medical work, hence my decision to become a
police officer. My mother almost had a heart attack when I announced my decision, but now she’s OK
with it because she knows I’m happy. For instance, last week, we recovered an old lady’s car that had a
huge sentimental value to her, and she was so happy about it that it really made my day!

Creativity and innovation are related, but they are not the same thing. One could say that
there is creativity in innovation, but is there innovation in creativity? Not necessarily. Being
creative reflects the ability to create something new, something different from what already
exists. However, if this creation isn’t implemented, there is no innovation. Thomas Edison
once said that “There’s a way to do it better—find it.” Innovation is also something new and
different, but it affects mindsets, relationships, and several human interactions.

“Strategy” comes from the Greek word strategia, commonly used in war

related to the word strategos, which was used to refer to officials.
