Episode notes
Act Fast On Inspiration
- Act on inspiration immediately because inspiration is perishable and loses power fast.
- Start messy and small (call, show up, press record) to capture the moment and create momentum.
Inspiration As A Vivid Delusion
- Inspiration is a vivid mental image or delusion that motivates action despite current ability.
- Feeling the experience mentally makes you more likely to pursue and improve toward it.
Use External Signals To Launch
- When others identify a strength in you, believe them and act on it instead of dismissing praise.
- Use external signals (friends, audience) as permission to experiment and launch new projects.
