Summary

Here's the secret to getting out of a rut, to getting unstuck and breaking through that wall: Make. More. Stuff.

No matter what's blocking you creatively, your best bet is always to just turn up the volume. MAKE. Can't make something good? Make something bad. Make something ugly. Make something crazy doesn't make sense.

It doesn't matter what you make, only that you're taking action. Remember, you can't think your way out of a rut. You must do. Only through creating can you find clarity on what you actually need to do. Consider this episode a little friendly reminder to make more stuff.

Enjoy!

0:00.0	Hey everybody, welcome to another episode of the Chazard La Jolla.
0:07.6	I'm just kidding.
0:08.5	And this was full of energy there, and I wanted to come out.
0:10.8	It's hot.
0:12.1	Welcome to another episode of the show, y'all.
0:14.4	Today's a micro show, and I don't know about you.
0:17.7	I'm really enjoying the micro shows.
0:20.2	It's a nice counterbalance to having
0:22.9	someone else that we both admire, respect, appreciate, want to learn from on the show. But here's
0:30.8	the thing. I got stuff that I want to share. And I used to try and mix all this stuff I want to share
0:37.3	with our guest, but,
0:38.8	you know, I just felt like that started compromising on the guest's time. So these micro shows,
0:44.2	I want to first of all say thank you for A, the idea, because that came from this community.
0:49.5	And then B, thanks for all the feedback. And if you want to hear more about a particular subject, feel free to shout me out in the DMs on Twitter, anywhere where I can be found hanging out on the internet and let me know what you want to hear more about.
1:09.2	But without further ado, today's topic is, as one would expect,
1:13.8	something that is very near and dear to me. And that is how to get out of being stuck,
1:20.4	of being in a rut, of being on autopilot. I don't know if this particular time that we're in right now has disproportionately
1:31.1	created ruts. I have a calendar. It's just I removed the prefix from every day and now
1:37.6	they all just say day. But this idea of how to get out of a rut or how to get unstuck is so real.
1:48.4	And I feel like I could do 50 episodes of the podcast about it.
1:52.9	But today in particular, I wanted to share with you that early on in my photography career, I encountered a rut.
