Brainstorming sessions are very effective.

Bounce ideas off others to find new solutions and overcome barriers. Or find them on your own. 

Many barriers can prevent you from creative thinking. 

These barriers include fear of the unknown. Fear of looking silly. And premature judgment of ideas.

You’re more likely to be creative if they do not feel judged or pressured. 

Give yourself time to think and explore new ideas without an immediate solution. 

Creativity is a process of generating new ideas. A process of finding solutions to problems. 

It is a skill that develops with practice.

Practice keeps the barriers at bay. 

Barriers to creativity include:

* Fear of the unknown.

* Not being smart enough.

* Not feeling confident enough to share your ideas.

This fear can stop you from taking risks and trying new things. Both of which are necessary to develop new ideas.

You should not get discouraged by these fears and instead try to push through them. 

Success is finding a way to overcome your fears and not let them stop you from coming up with new ideas.

Of the many barriers to creativity, is attachment to old ideas. 

You tend to be so attached to their old ideas that they can't develop any new ones. 

Attachment to past success can block new ideas. You think your next ideas that might not work out as well as your past achievements. And that's a barrier to great solutions. 

Stopping at the first idea can also be a barrier as you may not have explored more profound ideas. Going past your first ideas can reaffirm your first ideas are the best. Without going deeper, you wouldn't know. 

Creativity is a skill that gets developed through practice and critical thinking. 

It's essential to identify what's blocking you creatively. And work on developing strategies for overcoming those blocks.
