Question
The action stage in the creative process differs from other stages as it requires the ability to overcome fear and doubts. It demands courage to move things forward quickly, rather than creating elaborate, detailed plans. The fear of failure and judgments is ignored in this stage. By setting small goals and checkpoints, the process of taking action becomes less overwhelming and initiates progress.

Until someone learns how to put ideas into action, no amount of creativity is going to amount to anything. The action stage is where the ability to overcome fear and doubts is critical. It took courage to commit to creativity and to learn the steps for creative thinking. Now that same courage has to pick up speed and move things forward quickly. Instead of elaborate, detailed plans, the action stage requires moving fast and ignoring the fear of failure and judgments. By setting small goals and checkpoints, the process of taking action becomes less overwhelming and gets the ball rolling.
