Complexity and Creativity

Creative people see too many possibilities, often frustrating their co-workers.

Psychology Today: The Creative Personality, 1996-Jul/Aug, from Creativity: The Work and Lives of 91 Eminent People, by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi

Creative individuals are remarkable for their ability to adapt to almost any situation and to make do with whatever is at hand to reach their goals. If I had to express in one word what makes their personalities different from others, it's complexity. They show tendencies of thought and action that in most people are segregated.
