Hoping this link to the exact point in the interview works. I like this concept for couples we need to discuss the practicalities of their lives every week. overcast.fm/+7TtI0Rxw8/37:…

Here’s the exact clip that I like.

Interesting shift on the notion of generosity and how it unlocks creative block

Got creative block? Try generosity.

“Love what you do” = pro ; “do what you love” = amateur

Great start to a short discussion of the idea of “attitudes are skills”; and reminds me of Kenneth Burke’s notion that “attitudes are equipment for living”

Where to be patient, and where impatient

Why presentations often fail

The form of learning: current position followed by information or experience that comes with emotional disorientation, then you get through it and now know more than you did before (something like that)

Tension, rubber bands, revelation

When you know there is enough, you are freed up to do the work. You’re not working for more, you’re working to be generous, and do some thing that matters.

What would you do if you knew it would fail? It’s worth doing even if it doesn’t work. What a great question!

Ship creative work means

Apply your good taste to a genre you study, and then you’ll make something creative

What a great message: find your smallest viable audience, so that you can explore the golden area. Not doing what works, but doing what is inside of you, even if it alienates a large part of your current audience.

What a great conversation these people are having, and I’m so thankful that they are having it. Here is a link to a question that is always alive and well at Ready for Good. overcast.fm/+YgM5Wps9I/23:…
