CREATIVITY....51 (16 habits of creative people.....9)


9. Creative people make positive Judgment

A new idea is delicate. It can be killed by a sneer or a yawn. It can be stabbed to death by a quip and worried to death by a right man’s brow – a businessman Charles Brower

The ability to hold off on judging or critiquing an idea is important in the process of creativity. Often great ideas start as crazy ones - if critique is applied too early the idea will be killed and never developed into something useful and useable.



This doesn’t mean there is no room for critique or judgment in the creative process but there is a time and place for it and creative people recognize that.
