Listen "Waste Time Wisely - Curating Curiosity Snacks for Better Distractions"
Episode Synopsis
Grab my new eBook, Necessarily Creative: https://shop.scottmclemore.comEver feel guilty about falling down a rabbit hole of distractions? In this episode of Keep the Flow, I flip the script on curiosity and show how the right kind of "curiosity snacks" can fuel your creativity instead of draining your time. Inspired by Anne-Laure Le Cunff’s take on mindful exploration, I dive into how creative professionals—especially those who are neurodivergent—can balance focus and discovery. From tweaking your digital environment to hacking YouTube’s algorithm, I share practical ways to turn distractions into creative fuel. Because sometimes, wasting time the right way is the most productive thing you can do.Also mentioned in this episode: Simon Sinek, Jacob Collier, Andy J.
