The mental wounds of self-doubt have destructive energy. Focus your energy on productive positivity to control your mind and unleash creativity.

2. Observe creativity clues.

Gather every creative detail that you can find to construct new and innovative answers to your complex problems.

3 Eliminate preconceptions about there being only one right solution.

Perceiving all problems as opportunities gives you permission to explore new possibilities.

4. Practice creating new ideas.

Every day, spend 25 minutes writing down all aspects of a problem and five minutes brainstorming new solutions.

5. Persevere and don't be afraid to fail.
