1
Take feedback with a grain of salt. Keep
following your own path. The problem with
asking for feedback is that a person's feedback
will always be biased because he or she will
have a different idea of what your work
should be. Other people will try to push you
in a direction that might be right for them,
but not for you. Though they may have good
intentions, this will only stifle you. You should
be comfortable asking for feedback, but don't
let anyone's opinion keep you doing from
what you're doing.
As you get more comfortable asking for
feedback, you'll be able to tell which
people really "get' your work and can give
valuable criticism, and which people just
aren't suited for understanding your work.
Once you're finished with your creative
work, whatever it may be, then you can
listen to feedback. Just don't let criticism,
even the constructive type, stifle your
creativity during the creative process.
Keep in mind that people will generally
display resistance to your idea, because
good ideas change the existing dynamic,
and people, for the most part, like things
the way they are. When you present
something that challenges the status quo,
many people will feel threatened.
2
Don't be afraid to criticize yourself.
Actually, be harder on yourself than everyone
else is. Always ask yourself, "How could I have
done this better?" or "What would I have
done differently in a perfect world?" Accept
that you are not perfect, and that you're
striving to be as good as possible is the fruit
of self-expression. If you can't find fault with
your own work, you're probably not trying
hard enough.
Criticizing yourself doesn't mean being
setting such a high standard that you
always feel like you miss the mark. You
should be able to criticize your own work
while also being able to appreciate your
strengths.
3
Don't be a perfectionist. Your natural
output, drained of concern for creating
something that's exactly right, will always
produce creative results. There are limitless
paths to achieving creative success.
Imperfection is human, and sometimes the
most creative artists leave mistakes unfixed
on purpose. Nature itself is beautifully
imperfect. Don't try to be so perfect that you
end up destroying the very thing that made
your work unique.[1]
Being a perfectionist is also likely to stifle
your output. Sure, you may produce a few
high-quality pieces of work, but you'll also
keep yourself from experimenting and
trying out some less-than-perfect works
that could have led to something
incredible.
Work on the "bad" ideas. Even if you are
only coming up with what you feel are
"bad" ideas, you are still being creative, so
develop them, and they could turn into a
great solution! Focus on improving your
"bad" ideas more than perfecting your
"good" ones.
4
Don't tie your self-worth to your creative
output. Your value as a human is defined by
so many many other things: how you treat
other people, how you treat yourself, how
much love you have for the world, your
willingness to be selfless, your ability to do
the hard things. We could go on and on for a
whole article, and creative expression is
something that matters.[2]
But it's not the only thing that matters. If
you fail at your creative endeavors, try not
to let it affect your self-esteem. Try to use
it as an opportunity to get better.
And don't compare your own output to the
output of your creative friends, either.
Everyone works at his or her own pace, and
this is only guaranteed to drive you insane,
not inspire you.
5
Put yourself into situations where you
know you will fail. This one seems a bit
counter-intuitive, but it's important. Lots of
perfectionists are afraid of failing, and
therefore only do the things they know they
are good at. Don't succumb to this mindset.
Creativity is like dating: If you never strike
out at least some of the time, you're not
trying hard enough. So let go of your ego, be
prepared to fail (but don't expect it), and
jump into new and challenging situations.
You're never going to be creative if you never
take a leap.
Let's say you're a poet. Try your hand at
penning a short story, even if you're way
out of your comfort zone. Enjoy the relief
of knowing it probably won't be the
greatest artistic feat of your life, and have
fun with it.
6
Think like an adult but act like a kid. Adults
who are trying to be creative face a lot of
creative roadblocks along the way: there are
rules about what's allowed and what isn't, how
we're supposed to behave and not behave.
Those rules are there for a reason (we're not
saying they're bad), but they can inhibit your
creativity. Instead, use all the natural
intelligence you've gained as an adult and
where possible, act like a kid. Maintain the
wonder you had as a child, and look at every
person you meet or every tree you see as
endlessly fascinating.
Kids ask lots of questions to try to
understand the world. Don't ever stop
doing that.
Children have a natural creativity that's
constantly reinventing itself, partly
because they're learning about the world
and partly because they don't know that
they're not supposed to do certain things.
Don't be afraid to responsibly break rules.
Tap into that playfulness that's inside of us
all, and go explore that jungle gym that is
the world.

Think like an adult but act like a kid. it work a lot of time.
