“Creating” as a Competency

People with a high level of this ability will constantly be regarded by others as creative, witty, or original. They also have ideas that others would not be too quick to come up with. However, these people are not readily satisfied with the familiar. They also sometimes do not think ideas through enough. These ideas often do not come to fruition.

People with a low level will find it difficult to come up with something new. They are entangled in a particular thinking pattern which makes them only come up with existing solutions or ideas.
