Curious what the creative process looks like? Check out the creative squiggle: Knowing the shape of the journey makes it easier during the hardest parts.
> Do you know that feeling of excitement and certainty when starting a project or venture? It’s a good feeling. Sadly, it does not last. Confusion, distraction, and uncertainty often creep in. After some work, you reach a dead end. You pivot. Another dead end. Frustration mounts.
That's because doing things well is hard. It took me a long time to realize this but once I did things are actually easier to accomplish. You can get through most things (excluding maybe physical limitations) with enough time and effort.
I think of it more like lightning, where the lightning branches out chaotically trying different paths to the ground until a critical path is found, and then the "leader" strikes the ground, and everything follows with it.
