The author reviews the studies of creativity from the aspect of what relationship can be established between creativity in either everyday life or outstanding creators and optimism, health and subjective well-being. According to her reasoning both kinds of creativity is probably contingent to optimism – except the case of artists, as the author hasn’t found any data supporting the correlation. The relationship between everyday creativity and subjective well-being can be also concluded.
