Rigidity/conservatism;

This is mainly a negative attitude to change. Thus people who are not willing to change cannot be creative and think of how to improve what is existing.

Fear of failure;

 People who fear failure cannot be creative because they do not want to try and failure which is the basis for creativity.

Lack of self confidence;

 People of this nature do not believe in themselves or what they are doing. In other words if you do not believe in yourself or what you are doing, you cannot even stand for it or invest in it to develop it further

Complacency;

People of this nature do not mind the way things happen. In other words they believe everything is ok and do not see any need for change which limits their creativity. They celebrate their successes prematurely.

 Reactions to problems faced;

The way we react to the problems faced during the creativity process usually becomes a barrier to our achievements in most cases. For example if we react to our problems with fear we cannot try anymore.

Beliefs that it cannot be done;

Such beliefs that it is impossible, or cannot believe in doing anything new discourages creativity.

There is nothing I can do;

This makes some people to leave certain activities to be done by others because of fear of making mistakes yet mistakes are recipes for creativity.

Lack of self awareness; 

Some people are not aware of their ability in life. Such people only think and believe that success can be achieved through working for others.

Fear for the future/ the unknown;

 Majority of the people are hopeless about the future and therefore see no better thing or success in the future.

Absolute thinking;

There are people who think absolutely that everything is good and in its best form or no bad about it. However everything good has a bad side of it.

Hopelessness;

Some people cannot initiate anything on their own without external help.

 Prejudice/wrong judgment;

This hinders creativity because most of the ideas that come from people are prejudiced and wrongly judged to the extent that they are not implemented yet they could develop into important or profitable business ventures.

Creative answers are complex;

In most cases ordinary entrepreneurs leave some with skill due to their complexity. They fear to try and fail.

People think that ideas come on their own.

In reality sitting and wishing does not make a man and therefore creative ideas do not come on their own but they are seriously searched for.
