The focus of this step is to transform the idea into reality. Plenty of people come up with creative ideas for promising new products, but most never take them beyond the idea stage. What sets entrepreneurs apart is that they act on their ideas. [Steps of the Creative Process]

6. Verificaiton

Validating the idea as accurate and useful, for entrepreneurs, may include conducting experiments, running simulations, test marketing a product or service, establishing small-scale pilot programs and other activities designed to verify that the new idea will work and is practical to implement. [Steps of the Creative Process]

1. Searching for the one "right" answer - ingrained in most educational systems is the assumption that there is one "right" answer to a problem. 2. Focus on "being logical" - Logic is a valuable part of the creative process, especially when evaluating ideas and implementing them. However, in the early imaginative phases of the process, logical thinking can restrict creativity. Focusing too much effort on being logical also discourages the use of one of the mind's most powerful creations: intuition. 3. Blindly following the rules - Sometimes, creativity depends on our ability to break the existing rules so that we can see new ways of doing things. 4. Constantly being practical - Suspending practicality for a while frees the mind to consider creative solutions that otherwise might never arise. 5. Viewing play as frivolous - A playful attitude is fundamental to creative thinking.

6. Becoming overly specialized - Creative thinkers tend to be "explorers," searching for ideas outside their areas of specialty. 7. Avoiding ambiguity - Ambiguity can be a powerful creative stimulus; it encourages us to "think something different." Avoiding it will not let us that something should be identified in a situation. 8. Fearing looking foolish - New ideas rarely are born in a conforming environment. 9. Fearing mistakes and failure - Creative people realize that trying something new often leads to failure; however, they do not see failure as an end. It represents a learning experience on the way to success. 10. Believing that "I'm not creative" - A person who believes he or she is not creative will, in all likelihood, behave that way and will make that belief come true.
