Creativity

XP says that these values are important: Communication, Simplicity, Feedback, Courage, Respect, Rules of Engagement.

Sometimes I envision stuff and after fully understanding it I realize how over complicated my initial expectations were. Have you experienced that sometimes ? Did these wild things end up simpler at the end?

How can one avoid over complications ? Are there people who are less mature but can be creative? Children for example? Maybe them? Maybe you sometime ago? Do you remember when you were a child and how creative you were?

There is a quote about children:

“Democracy cannot survive without the guidance of a creative minority.” -Harlan Stone
