Creative Space Mastery Podcast taniacreations

How many creators, inventors, entrepreneurs, coders, parents, artists and trailblazers have a desire to create something but don't know where to start?
Well, you start by establishing a space for inspiration to come and protecting this practice.
I call this, the Creative Space.
Hear what is the concept of Creative Space, what is involved in it, and understand that perfection isn't a requirement.
Hear how I have established my creative process and examples of time commitments I have given to it.
Start thinking of your process, where you can start.
Make a commitment yourself. Start today.

You have set up time to create, now you need to be brave and tell yourself and others what is it you want to achieve with your creative time. With boldness, so you stop wasting time with uncertainty.
Declare what you know, even if it isn't much. Find what you want to know from what you loved doing since you were a child.
I recount my own stories and how I found my passion, how I had to be brave and admit to myself that my storytelling was not leaving me alone.

Treat your creation time with respect.
Pretend you are a professional at what you want to do.
Give yourself quality time, as you do at work.
You don't need to overstep any limits, just be fully present in the moment of creation, giving it your full engagement.
In this episode I'll give you some examples of when my creative practice gained a new level, when I could take one writing day per week, but also what it was when I was not working and when I was working full time.

What do you do when you are hit by a crisis, how to keep functioning, and keep being a creative being, amid complete chaos?
Devise a plan to Manage Chaos.
Learn what is to ride the lows gracefully, applying what I call the law of the minimum effort wisely.
What to prioritise and how to take the opportunity to re-examine the way you do things when you get out of crisis.
Listen about how to get organised when you have too much inspiration, and how to manage energy not tasks.

There are people becoming famous writing things without ever editing one line, musicians making music by blowing on a flat piece of glass, artists enthralling a whole Sydney Opera House with two pieces of rope with pebbles on their ends; if that is possible for them, it means you can have fun doing whatever you want.
We often stop ourselves in our creativity because we want to be good, or perfect when neither is required, making an impact for us, and enjoying the process are the only valid metrics we should focus on.
Listen to case studies and examples and understand that we we free to create whatever we want and quality is not a requirement.

In this episode, we are talking about setting rules for yourself to protect you from falling down rabbit holes and losing your creative time unproductively.
People have weak links, things they lose themselves into, and time has run away from them when they see it.
This is how to set yourself up to be productive during your creative practice.
