We know that no one gets Plummer's Block.

No one gets Jugglers Block.

Why do we get Writers' Block?

Because we are afraid of bad writing to put it on paper, to put it on canvas, to put it wherever you do your work. Show me the bad stuff. Do enough bad stuff and some good stuff is going to slip through no matter how hard you try.

From the Ted Family of Podcasts, this is Design Matters with Debbie Milman.

For 15 years, Debbie Milman has been talking with designers and other creative people about what they do, how they got to be who they are, and what they're thinking about and working on.

On this episode, author and teacher Seth Goughton talks about the practice of creativity. Nobody starts working in a state of

flow. The only way to enter a state of flow is to begin working when you're not in

a state of flow.

Thanks. Seth Gogne chose an unusual title for his latest book. It's called The Practice.

The subtitle is even more enigmatic. It is

shipping creative work. Since new book is about the practice of creativity and

the process of doing creative work. But shipping? How do you ship

creative work? Well lucky for us Seth Godin is here to tell us about his title and

his book and about unlocking our creative energies
