Book Description
You're a creative person. Even if you have a hard time calling yourself a "writer" or an "artist" in public, making your creative work is core to who you are an how you see the world. YOu may be nurturing a big, ambitious idea for a project. Possibly a lot of them. And it's killing you. You lie awake thinking about it. And then in the morning you're exhausted, and you can't believe you "wasted" more time on this stupid idea. You try to shove your idea away. But your creative work is what keeps you sane. You can't not do this. So you live with guilt and anxiety all the time. Maybe you've tried to borrow time-management tips from the business world, but the problem isn't simply getting "things' done, ti's allowing yourself to devote precious time and attention to the vital, self-generated creative work that builds towards your vision for the future. But the life you're living is already full. You've mad e a lot of promises, to yourself, your family, your friends, and your community, that you'll be there for them. Where, exactly, can you find that mythical Creative Focus Unicorn? Growing Gills takes you step by step through the process of pinning down exactly what's topping you from finishing your beautiful, inventive, and potentially game-changing projects and overcoming those obstacles.
