Stop OBSESSING Over Making Meaningful Creative Work

from Keep the Flow

What happens when you lose sight of why you're creating—and how do you find your way back?📬 If this resonated with you, you'll love my newsletter—I send one email a week with ideas like this: https://ktfpod.com/#newsletter This week I'm feeling lost and questioning what really motivates my creativity. In this episode, I explore three ideas that help when you don't know why you're creating: relaxing into the process, giving yourself permission not to have all the answers, and reframing the ego question by focusing on service rather than achievement. If you've ever wondered whether your creative work is driven by genuine purpose or just ego, or if you've lost sight of why you even create, this conversation is for us.🎧 Check out my music: https://scottmclemore.bandcamp.com/🤟 Join the Patreon community: https://patreon.com/scottmclemore Hosted on Acast.
