Creative Character Trait

The creative character trait of an individual is really about the creative thinking abilities of one's mind to change something or to create something entirely new. The creative mind asks the question, "what if" and opens the door to possibilities; to find solutions, make something beautiful, or even revolutionize human capabilities.

Everyone is creative. Everyone has the ability to be creative, but some of us have strong creative character trait abilities. These creative people harness that power to enhance their learning, career and relationships. They imagine and dream about the possibilities. And they have a tendency, an intense desire, to create what their mind reveals.
