RE: When creating a lot of content, learn to make sacrifices

in #work7 years ago

Totally agree with you here! It really helps to simplify things in order to maintain consistency! But then again, I'm a bit OCD and I love structured processes!

Also, I think it helps day to day with your creativity and innovation if you reduce the amount of decisions you have to make about benign things like what to wear or eat. Take Steve Jobs and President Obama for example who were known to wear the same thing literally everyday, in order to save "brain energy" for the most important things during their day (like work).

Great read!

PS - you used to write 2 articles a day?? How did you manage that! Respect!

Sort:  

That's pretty much the same approach I take, more or less. I try to reduce the amount of decisions I make every day and just focus on what matters for me. When it comes to Steemit, writing matters a lot more than how the article looks like. Same with a bunch of other things.

Oh, and don't worry about you being OCD or obsessive over some things. I have the same problem sometimes. Today I created a few 3D things and everything had very small white or pink pixels here and there. Instead of ignoring the problem, I spent literally 30 minutes in Photoshop correcting every damn pixel.

Was it a necessity? Nah, not really. Am I happy I did it? Hell yeah!

And two articles a day... well, it's not that hard once you get used to it. I tried writing 600 - 700 words articles, I tried writing about things I knew and I forced myself to read and consume as much content as possible.

Editing however... oh my God, I hated and still hate that.

Also, thank you for reading and leaving a comment :)
