Just because you have skills doesn't mean you can get the gig, land the job, or create something impressively outstanding. Skills are only one specific part of the equation of success. An important part of the formula of success is often originality. You need creativity to stand out. Don't underestimate creativity. You will find that often life and success relate directly to your creative ideas and how you express them.

Think about it seriously for a few seconds. Some examples of uniquely creative ideas include the following:

Writer's blogs
Poet's poems
Inventor's ideas
Author's writings
Architect's blue prints
Graphic designer's layouts
Advertiser's advertisments
Movie director's concepts
Muscian's lyrics & rhythms
Interior Designer's plans
Cartoonist's characters
