NOTE

Get a creativity partner, not an accountability partner

Having a creativity partner instead of an accountability partner can be more effective in helping you make progress on a day-to-day basis. An accountability partner is often seen as someone who punishes you if you don't achieve your goals. On the other hand, a creativity partner focuses on exploring and understanding why certain goals are not being accomplished, and helps to refine and redefine them. It is crucial to find someone who aligns with your creative point of view and has similar tastes. This chemistry of taste and understanding enhances the creative journey and prevents forcing oneself to do things that are not desired, ultimately leading to better work and avoiding unnecessary suffering.
