Episode notes
Dealing with Fear
- Acknowledge and respect your fear, but don't let it control your creative choices.
- Invite fear along but keep it in the backseat; it doesn't get to make decisions.
Authenticity over Originality
- Originality is less important than authenticity in creative work.
- Focus on expressing your unique perspective, even if the topic isn't new.
Motivation for Creativity
- Create for the joy of creating, not solely to help others.
- Helping others can be a side effect of your creative work but shouldn't be the primary goal.
