7. Flexibility meaning i'm not a lateral thinker. I probably used the wrong word there. Also I seem to get stuck on certain phrases whereas I think other people are more creative and random.
For what it's worth, I have little girl hands myself. Literally, my wife's hands are bigger than mine as are most women's. But I played 5 instruments and shooting guard/light forward in basketball. The size of your hands isn't holding you back unless they are insanely small ... like 7-year old boy small.

Creativity can actually be fostered. Contrary to popular opinion, it's not a "ya got it or ya don't" kind of thing. Plus, just because someone doesn't paint or write doesn't mean they aren't creative. For example, engineers are usually considered to not be very creative. But, engineers are extremely creative people; working out novel solutions to problems people didn't even realize were problems.
