Risk

Risk-taking - Creativity involves taking risks. Those who are truly creative may fail many times before succeeding. You have to be able to risk your ideas, put them on the line, and see where they take you. Sometimes you may be unhappy with the results. Sometimes you may be pleasantly surprised. Failure is not something to be feared, it is a gift. It is simply another step closer to success because you can modify your thinking and ideas to bring you closer to your goal - whether your first attempt at painting a portrait or the larger goal of building your dream home. A journey that is filled with many failures is a journey full of learning.
