Me 10 years ago couldn't finish a creative project to save my life unless I did it with other people. I got really skillful at individual things, but I was too scared to actually finish projects. 

Now, I finish projects all the time in multiple disciplines, and am actually recognized a lot for that by my friends and colleagues. I worked at it consisitently with my own creativity, but I also sought out jobs that would force me to be creavite and finish projects.

꩜ Spiral learning

Any important area of life has many (perhaps, unlimited) layers of understanding and application. This is certainly true with Joyful Productivity. Each time you return to one of the lessons, consider these 4 steps: Choose one concept, tool, or exercise from the Lesson that you're most interested to apply right now. All other ideas, put on the "back burner" for future consideration. It'll always be available to you to revisit. Choosing to apply one idea at a time will make your real-life learning more sustainable. Experiment as you apply it into your life or business. This means you're open to making "mistakes" as you try implementing the idea. Reflect on your real-life learning and implementation: add a comment underneath that particular lesson. Share your experience with the class. Ask any questions. Netcare by reading a few other comments and replying underneath them. Perhaps even reach out privately to someone to appreciate their reflection. By using these 4 steps again and again, you will spiral deeper (or higher) into your skillfulness with Joyful Productivity 👏🏽

Having started with the Spiral Learning mindset in the Authentic Business Planning course, I really feel at ease to go through the course and let what I need now to stand out to me, start using it, and then add more in later. <3
