The beauty of consistency
"The inspiration just didn't come!"
Well, we've hear that one before right?
Turns out that creativity can be reached in two different ways.
One, you are the super creative, free thinker, your mind is firing up like a pinball machine and there is NOTHING that makes you think about nothing.
Two, you're as structured as a Japanese businessman. Day in day out going through the grind. Scanning the field of creativity pixel by pixel.
Turns out both tactics actually work wonderfully. Science told me..
What's so beautiful about consistency is that you create a friendship with your work. A relationship.
Now, what's the definition of a good relationship?
It doesn't stop when it gets difficult.
When you're consistent in your work you get to know yourself through your work.
It's a mirror that you look into.
Everyone can create wonderful things when they feel amazing. But the real quality of your work only surfaces when you're not in the mood and you do it anyway.
Why don't we take your worst work as a measure of your mastery?
