Creativity

The Long Game: Creativity as a Practice, Not a Destination 🎨

Mastery in creativity, like earning a black belt, isn’t about sudden breakthroughs—it’s about showing up consistently over time. The most profound ideas often arise when you treat creativity as a daily discipline, embracing the long game.

The Experiment:

• Commit to Consistency: Dedicate a specific time each day to your creative practice—whether writing, recording, or brainstorming. Treat it like training, not a one-off effort.
• Embrace Iteration: Every piece of work is part of the journey, no matter how small. Don’t aim for perfection. Strive for progress. Or, as my good friend Rob Cressy says, "1's over 0's." Make today a "one" by doing something intentional.
• Celebrate Milestones: Reflect on how far you’ve come, even if it’s just one idea or project you’ve nurtured over time.

This week, think of your creativity like a martial art: a discipline you hone through steady practice. The breakthroughs will come—but only if you keep stepping onto the mat.

Spirituality

Becoming: The Endless Journey Within 🌀

We often think of life as a series of destinations—milestones to reach and goals to achieve. But what if the real magic lies in the journey itself, in the act of becoming rather than arriving?

The Practice:

• Pause and Look Back: Reflect on how far you’ve come, not just in tangible achievements but in growth, resilience, and self-discovery.
• Be Present in the Process: Each moment, even the challenging ones, carries its lesson. Embrace the small steps as part of the dance of life.
• Trust the Unfolding: Growth isn’t linear. Trust that where you are right now is exactly where you’re meant to be.

This week, let’s focus on the act of becoming—on leaning into the journey with gratitude and curiosity. The destination will take care of itself.

Life Update

This week, I reached a milestone that has been over a decade in the making—earning my black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

When I look back at the years of training, the countless hours on the mats, and the moments of intense physical and mental pressure, I’m reminded that this journey has been as much about who I’ve become as what I’ve achieved.

BJJ has been a teacher, revealing truths about persistence, humility, and the power of staying calm and focused when everything feels overwhelming.

Each belt wasn’t just a new color but a deeper understanding of myself—my limits, my strengths, and the value of resilience.

This black belt isn’t the end. It’s a new beginning. In many ways, I still feel like a beginner—excited to keep learning, growing, and sharing what this art has given me.

Here’s a picture of me with my coach and good friend, Tony, whose guidance and inspiration have shaped my journey in BJJ and my perspective on life 💙🥋🙏.

To anyone on their own long journey—whether personal, professional, or spiritual—remember that growth happens in small, consistent steps. Keep going. You've got this.

With love and gratitude ❤️‍🔥🙏,
Colin
