- hcayless 17y agoWell, the name of the site is "the defeated spirit"...so maybe it's that on purpose...

- messel 17y agoI'd appreciate comments as to why you think so after reading.
- yef 17y agoFrom personal experience, procrastination does nothing to improve my readiness. Diligence, working at my craft, developing a process for working through setbacks and obstacles, etc...these are all things that improve my readiness AND my overall level of inspiration and creativity. My outside reading on creativity confirms my personal opinion. Frankly, I think procrastination is the single worst drain on an information-based economy, and I have a hard time seeing any arguments in defense of procastination. Just being honest about my bias.
- messel 17y agoThanks yef. While I don't agree, perhaps it's a cognitive bias of mine? I need some down cycles, or to chew on a different topic or listen to music to let my brain breathe a little. Perhaps our individual nature plays very much into our creative aspects. You, for example are at your most creative when at the grindstone pushing yourself forward. I always have my best concepts in the foggy moments after waking up in the middle of the night. Walking is like meditation for me, and gives my brain a chance to wander/explore a problem space without judgement. Actually building something requires ritualistic dedication though. Coming up with the original inspiration, not so much.
