Creativity and the individual

I completely agree with Susan Cain "The Rise Of The New Groupthink" in the New York Times Sunday Review.  A group does not think.  A group gravitates to the power of the person who leads or who will not adjust to any other view but their own.  They wear a group down.  And as Cain indicates.  Groups are easy to hide in.  The best creative work is done by a person working, doing the heavy lifting, on their own.
Pep talks and encouragement is always great.  It helps.  A good group can give that to a person.  The work itself takes persistence, dedication and devotion to what they are doing.  That comes from the person's ethic.
