I Wish I Had More Time to Create
Talk With The Video
Summary
- I used to have more time to focus on making everything I created perfect, especially my content, because I had fewer responsibilities. Now I can't do that with the same level of detail, and it makes me a little sad.
- I often feel like an artist with the content I put out, and there's a part of me that wants to invest fully into it, but it's not feasible with my current demands.
- The irony is that while I wish I had more time to create artfully, it's the lack of time that gives me the experience and insight to make the content meaningful in the first place.
- This creates a recurring struggle for me: the balance between wanting to make everything a masterpiece and the reality of limited bandwidth.

How To Take Action
I would suggest implementing a mindset shift to embrace "done" over "perfect" when creating content or tackling projects. Start by setting a clear time limit on each task to avoid the trap of endless perfectionism. This will help you focus on what truly matters and reduce stress.
A good way of doing this is by prioritizing tasks. Identify the ones that are necessities and allocate your best energy to them. For less critical tasks, allow yourself to produce "good enough" work. This stops you from burning out while ensuring you're still getting the important stuff done.
For personal growth, turn limitations into strengths by documenting your experiences. Jot down the insights you gain from having a full schedule, as these are often the seeds for your most meaningful content. Reflecting on these insights can lead to authentic and impactful creations.
Try scheduling regular short breaks to recharge your energy. These pauses provide space to think creatively without the pressure of immediate output, enhancing the quality of your work.
Lastly, leverage technology. Use tools that can streamline your content creation, like templates or automation software. This will help maintain quality while freeing up time for the more artistic elements of your projects.
Remember, it's the experiences and insights from managing a busy schedule that add depth to your work. Embrace this phase as a chance to innovate within constraints.
