Put One Word After Another
One of the tropes that seems to follow creative types around is the myth of the “tortured artist.” The myth goes something like this: creative work is very, very difficult, and it requires the artist to give their blood, sweat, and tears to their creative work.

On today’s episode, you’ll discover why enjoying your creative work actually improves your productivity.
