Is creativity a mistake?


"Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep."

I think that this quote is very good. In my opinion, I think that Scott Adams express this quote about inspirational for anyone. Everyone do make mistakes, it happens in everyday life. Creativity comes with expressing ideas of the art. It is like I call it as putting it as a test. Once you create something, you think you make mistakes at the end. Mistakes just comes into a picture. Sometimes it is necessary to be creative in art or the ones that are not. Is being inspirational with something makes you make mistakes? Absolutely!
For an example, when I was in middle school, I was doing track and I was inspired by Marion Jones who was a pro track runner and the fastest woman in the world. She never made mistakes at her races while I was still in school so I still make mistakes by false starting the blocks or not winning the race. I continue with that all the way until college and I was never mad at myself for making those kind of mistakes. It happens and I learn from that. But being as creative, I learn a lot of things about Marion Jones and watch her moves on the blocks and her leg and arm forms. I created that in practices.
Making mistakes is part of everyone's life but it shouldn't let you stop doing them just because you make a mistake. You keep on going on something you love to do and that is what I did with track. So I agree with Scott Adams and it is something I will look back at this quote.
