The Importance of Creating in a Stress-Free State

When we are deeply stressed, our ability to create is hindered because the body is wired for fight or flight. In order to access our creative potential, we need to be in a state of openness and fluidity. Finding the best time for creative work, such as early mornings or late nights, can help carve out dedicated time for progress. Setting boundaries and protecting this sacred time is crucial, even if it means temporarily saying no to other demands. Experimenting with different environments and removing distractions can also enhance creative focus and productivity.
