Building Creative Thinking and "The Summer Grind"

Building Creative Thinking and "The Summer Grind"

As I assessed my commitments going into this summer I made the critical error of assuming I had more time than I did--or rather that I could do more in less time. It's funny, but it all comes back to priorities. Just because you have a goal doesn't mean you have the bandwidth to start right now. What would it look like to really take things one step at a time? Can being so focused on taking one step at a time turn every step into a destination that you miss the journey of?

In this episode I reflect on how I feel like my summers often feel like a time of preparation and training rather than relaxing, how I'd like to change that, and I go off on several targets about how to foster your creative thinking.
