Internal opinion is emotional drive and mental willpower for creative people. When faced with complex and tough problems, creative people tend to think positively. When they are asked to give opinion, they give various types of idea. Most of it became the laughing stock for people. When they are criticized, they defend their ideas. In certain irregular circumstances, they showed their characteristics of resourcefulness and creativity.
