Syncreate Podcast Episode 43 [AUDIO] Time Management & Prioritizing Your Work

In this installment of our Creative Spark mini-episodes, we emphasize the importance of time management and prioritizing our creative work. Though we have a vision for a project, we may be struggling with how to begin, or it may feel overwhelming. But if we break the process down into manageable goals, milestones, and tasks, we can move from start to finish with more ease, making incremental progress. We may also have trouble putting our work first over the other priorities in our lives, but this is so important to both completion and our sense of creative efficacy. This episode, like the mini-episodes that preceded it, includes insights and prompts from our book, Syncreate: A Guide to Navigating the Creative Process for Individuals, Teams, and Communities.
For our Creativity Pro-Tip, we encourage you to put your creative work at the top of your to-do list, and block off time in your calendar, just like you would for any other meeting or appointment, to work on your projects. This is how we create lasting habits and commit fully to our creativity.
