Here we are. Robcast, episode 302. It's good to be blank line period. I know. It took 302

0:17.6

episodes to get to an episode with a title that has a long blank line in it. We were working

0:26.1

our way there and now we're here. So the title of this episode is a fill in the blank. It's

0:32.3

good to be blank period. And so in this episode I want to explore what goes in that blank line

0:45.1

and give you something to write in that blank line. And it's so simple. And yet the most

0:54.8

profound truths are usually lurking, lingering somewhere there in the simple sentences,

1:07.4

aren't they? I'm doing some new, they're so enjoyable. I don't even know whether to call

2:10.8

we at least dip our toe in that water over there? But then these other voices, the voice

2:17.5

of the expert, the voice of the possible, the critic, judgment, shame, legitimacy, authority.

2:27.7

And so this week I'm doing a session called How to Create. And I want to show you how

2:36.7

to listen to that one voice in such a way that all those other voices, you can't even

2:44.6

hear them anymore. And there's the very specific ways you can do this. Once again, it's
