05 Leverage strengths and opportunities

We all have strengths and weaknesses when it comes to creativity. Strengths are our personal characteristics, that help us be more creative. Weaknesses are our personal characteristics that hinder us from being more creative.

Some examples of strengths that can help you be more creative are:

• healthy imagination
• healthy self-confidence
• enjoy learning and experiencing new things
• knowledgeable about a wide variety of topics
• enjoy taking on challenges

Some examples of weaknesses that can hinder you from being more creative are:

• fear of failing to complete a task
• low self-esteem and confidence in your abilities to do things
• fear what others think of you
• lack of imagination
• narrow range of interest and hobbies
• keep to yourself and socialize very little
