I agree creativity and fear are not in a war fighting against each other. There are times when fear has driven my creativity rather then squashed it.

I guess you could say this is a state of complete absence of fear. I certainly think fear can hinder creativity, probably most when you are exploring outside of your comfort zone if you let it. I suppose I see it primarily as an obstacle if anything else. It can either block my path, or I can try to move around it while acknowledging it is there.
