"perfection is not creative, conformity isn't either.  nor is routine. 
creativity asks us, in fact to change the way we live our life, to turn
away from the 'normal' way of doing things and instead express our
individuality", SO "if you're looking at the opposite of creativity, it
is probably control.  if you want to be more creative you have to take
more risks.  i think that's what inhibits most people" 

reach, well beyond your present grasp to achieve social justice
changes..it's imperative, [eh]
