The more someone is creative, the more chance they have of sabotaging their performance. Successful trading requires a kind of intelligence that can realize and enforce its own limitations. Successful system traders apply every ounce of intelligence they have into the creation of their systems, but they're dumbbells about following them. You've got to have schizoid approach. Work like hell to make it good, and then ignore it. President Bush would be a great trader of he had a system.
