Episode Synopsis


We all have things that put us in a “green” mood. No matter what’s going on, at the moment you’re experiencing that thing, you’re green. For guest host Isa Adney, that mood modifier is Hamilton. Just like the creators involved with Hamilton, you have the same power as a creator to make things that help people see the world differently, experience something beautiful, or just put a smile on someone’s face. In today’s episode, we talk about creative lessons and inspirations that you can take away from Hamilton (even if you didn’t like it as much as we did).  Main TakeawaysIt’s ok to have urgency in whatever you’re creating. In a way, we are all running out of time. However, this doesn’t mean that taking your time means your project is going to be worse than it would be if you did it urgently. It took six years to write Hamilton.Don’t get caught up in the details. Write the things you love and focus on the big picture, especially if you know in your heart it’s something you truly want to be making. Giving your all in the things you're doing every day, even if you’ve done it a thousand times, is the best way to push your craft toward having a big impact on those who interact with it. Going to meet or see the people you look up to is a great way to humanize them and make you realize they are just like you (in a good way). You have it in you to get to the same place and feel that belonging.Creators of the DayAnthony RamosAustin KleonResources of the DayHamilton: The RevolutionThought of the Day“Take chances, realize you can create in your own way.
