It's all in perception...creative and competent people don't call them 'mistakes'...they call it a learning curve.

Creative and incompetent people don't even recognize the mistakes...so, are they still mistakes?

That is an obvious statement hidden behind some fancy double talk.

That's like asking, "Are people who are creative & make fewer mistakes more competent than those who are creative & make more mistakes?"

Competence means fewer mistakes. Competence is job/subject specific. A competent pilot makes fewer mistakes than an incompetent pilot. The competent person makes fewer mistakes than the incompetent person. Hellooooooooo. People ask weak grade school questions, other people say so, and then the asker pouts about it. This one falls under the creative & incompetent category.

People who are successful make more mistakes however learn from them.

there's a clue in the word incompetent but then again there is the saying that the person who never made a mistake never made nothing

Incompetence will always garner more errors than that of a competent man or woman. In any field incompetence will result in more errors than the competent.

well,i'm not sure about the competent people making more mistakes that the incompetent....that sounds a bit silly to me
but creative people always will try to reinvent the wheel,so they will probably make more mistakes
it's always a risk to try something new.....
