As a creative entrepreneur, your time is literally your most valuable resource. From a business perspective, time is what you sell, because your artistic products require time to create. From a personal perspective, all work and no play makes you a miserable, starving artist (and it’s right there in the name of the podcast that we’re saying “NO MORE!” to the myth of the starving artist). One thing is for sure: time is valuable. But we don’t often think of time as a resource, something to use and manage to our advantage. Today, we’re going to look into what it means to think of time as a resource, and how that mindset can boost your creativity.
In this episode, you will learn:

Why time is so valuable to you as an artist and business owner.
How viewing your time as a precious resource might change what you decide to do with that time.
What benefits an attitude of “yes” can bring to your creative process.
Why small steps toward efficiency can pay off in really huge ways.
How to find small task automations that can help you stay in your creative flow.

In this episode, I mention the upcoming Thriving Narrators Retreat, which will take place August 22-25, 2024 in Cincinnati, OH. (Jennifer Blom, the guest for today's episode, will be a faculty member at this retreat.)
