Creativity is not a process. creativity is not scripted.
One of the most salient traits of creative visionaries like Walt Disney and Steve jobs is the absence of process.
Process is an organized way of doing things. But they didn’t have a process. They just did the work. No strict adherence to budget or timelines. Just figure things out on the fly.

For better thinking, stop thinking.
Creativity needs time to bloom
“Infinite-minded leaders understand that “best” is not a permanent state. Instead, they strive to be “better.” “Better” suggests a journey of constant improvement and makes us feel like we are being invited to contribute our talents and energies to make progress in that journey.”
-Simon Sinek
Constant improvement, gains of energy via better efficiency
- a community is more than just a group of like-minded people. it requires a shared emotional energy.
Case in point: communities share energy, companies share time
- “Energy management beats time management.” ― Katherine Morgan Schafler
If this is true (I believe it is), why do companies focus on time management? Because it’s easier and time is shared, energy isn’t (at least, typically. But it can be if done properly…)
