Episode 41 - Get Creative

Fuse Chamber

I used to be one of those people who struggled with consistent creativity. You’ve heard me repeat that the secret to having good ideas is to have lots of them….so I prefer to take the disciplined work approach to getting a reliable creativity flow.

• You can either work on ‘inspiration’ at scheduled times and groom the pile for the useful bits later.
• You can also wait for inspiration to show up - but this method rarely produces any meaningful volume or consistency of output
• Remember to surround yourself with inspiration before your writing ritual
• Also, have a convenient way to capture notes whether you’re in bed, in the car, or in a lineup
• The real secret is to stay disciplined. Make a promise to do the work and actually delivery. EVERY day.
