Episode 5 Season 4: Telic versus Atelic

In this episode, I explore the nuanced motivations behind writing, challenging authors to consider the atelic (non-result) and telic (objective-based) aspects of their creative pursuits. Drawing inspiration from Oliver Burkeman's work on productivity, I emphasize the importance of finding joy in the creative act itself, navigating the pressures of the publishing landscape, and ultimately trusting the atelic to enhance the natural manifestation of results over time.
