I may agree to all on the list except for number1.. creative people doesnt get easily bored.. they tend to devote more time in their creativity to make a specific task better than their previous idea.. so they do change their ideas a lot and often make mistakes or maybe overdoing a task. creativity is being innovative.. innovation doesnt come perfect on the first try.. thats why it needs continuous development and remodelling until you get the perfect recipe for your new idea.. creativity is thinking outside of the box therefore you tend to unsettle yourself from the standards and do it your own way..

Agreed! Creative people always tend to be open minded people. Many a times they even get easily disappointed when expected results are not met. But most of them are highly spirited and don't tend to give up easily. So we can add Determined to be one of the attributes.

Agreed and one more they have the characteristic of a "Amla berry" at tasting. Soar at times, Sweet at times. 

More important characteristic is the4th one: They are often for mistakes, but fortunately they will come with a right solution which others cannot even imagine.
