In this episode, Anna and Maria dive into the topic of structure as it relates to creativity. As creatives, many of us are resistant to structure; but as ambitious creatives, our desire to follow through and finish projects often requires some element of structure. Maria and Anna have been leaning into this idea in their own lives, so they’re sharing what’s worked for them. As usual, the specifics of what works best will depend on your circumstances, but they offer some suggestions for structuring space as well as time, with ideas for day-to-day time management as well as longer term goal setting.

This week’s quote:
“It’s hard to be fully creative without structure and constraint. Try to paint without a canvas. Creativity and freedom are two sides of the same coin. I like the best of both worlds. Want freedom? Get organized. Want to get organized? Get creative.” - David Allen
