In this episode, we explore the counterintuitive truth that unlimited freedom might be your creativity's worst enemy. I break down how constraints—whether it's a tight deadline, limited tools, or self-imposed boundaries—actually spark innovation rather than stifle it. From Shakespeare's quarantine masterpieces to Spielberg's broken shark, history shows us that limitations breed brilliance. Learn three practical strategies to harness the power of constraints and transform creative paralysis into focused productivity. Stop waiting for perfect conditions and discover why the frame around your work might be more valuable than the endless canvas you've been dreaming of.__________To follow me on Patreon for free: https://patreon.com/scottmclemoreListen to my music: https://scottmclemore.bandcamp.comTake a gander at my new website: https://scottmclemore.com Hosted on Acast.
