Create Useful Creations That Could Even Save A Life Someday

By Michael Claridge On October 20, 2009 Under: Amazing Creations

Now here’s a creation that looks to be quite useful – that is if you are a rescue worker.  It’s called the Braun Post-Disaster Emergency Foot Protective Accessory.  It’s a big name for something with a big purpose.  It is for rescue workers who are on scene of disasters like earthquakes.
 
Due to the rubble, and dangerous topography after such calamities, the feet of the rescue workers are most vulnerable and susceptible to injury and infection. Shards of glass, nails, debris etc. can hamper the mission and walking over them always poses a threat.
 
Enter the Braun Post-Disaster Emergency Foot Protective Accessory:  These handy contraptions fit snugly over the workers shoes and protect their feet from accidental nips and cuts.   Thanks to its sturdy structure the rescue worker can complete the job confidently, knowing their feet are protected.  It’s a two-part thing with a steel and silica gel insole and an over-the-shoe strap-up.

I’d like to comment on one other thing that I noticed about designer Huang Zheng and his creation.  Too many people think that in order for you to qualify as a creator, or for your creations to qualify as being creations that they must necessarily be something big in scope.  Meaning they have to have huge appeal, with broad recognition.  That simply is not the case. 

The Braun Post-Disaster Emergency Foot Protective Accessory isn’t something that has mass appeal, neither is it something that is universally useful, but it qualifies as a creation (quite well done I might add) and Huang Zheng qualifies as a creator.

The fact that you create qualifies you as a creator, and what you create is unarguably a creation.  Stop selling your creations short, and give yourself, the creator, some credit.  Once you get started creating you never know what useful and handy creations with big purposes that you will create.
