Slog

When our work becomes a slog, sometimes the ladder out of that pit is a creative pursuit that directly confronts the slog.

If you’re constrained, do some work that’s specifically loose.

If you’re married to a genre, explore a totally new area.

If you’re tired of working clean and tidy, work dirty and messy.

You know the “in case of emergency, break glass” signs?

In case of creative boredom or frustration, build out a safe space to turn things upside down. Give it a rattle and see what happens.
