When we are overwhelmed by our creative ideas or where to start or unsure what to work on, the very thing that we are inspired by can be the very thing that inhibits us.

Procrastination is protection.

When we add too much significance, we can lose the joy in our creativity and we can lose the expansiveness and possibility of what something can or wants to become. We can care about it deeply and we can also be playful.

Understanding how we can cultivate more presence helps shift out of unhelpful distraction but it also helps us see how we can turn distraction into inspiration.
