Or maybe people refuse to try what you suggest because they hate the results of their past efforts. Many people cannot sing, and no amount of practice will change that. Many others are grossly uncoordinated, and thus hate dance or playing sports. If every attempt I make to draw with pencil and paper looks sick to me, I'm going to stop drawing (which I have). But I'm happy to create in other media. Maybe the trick to being "creative" is finding a suitable medium for innovation, which may not be one that's typically considered to be "art" -- like software design, organizing your workshop, or building a better mousetrap.
