  • As a way of jumping back into my youtube journey I thought talking about Discipline and creativity was a good place to start. Everything I say in this video is in no way absolute truth. It is simply me expressing my own thoughts and feelings around the topics of discipline and creativity and how the two coincide in respect to myself. I believe there's a time and a place for discipline in relation to creativity and I go further in depth about the topic in this video.

    “Creating enough to stay relevant”. That one hit home. It’s what I hate most about social media. It’s not about making something worth sharing, it’s about making something so we’re not forgotten. Sad reality for creators. Nice video btw 👍🏼

      Thank you! I think there's going to be a shift into finding more "irl" connections soon enough! Fingers crossed!

    Easy way which always works for me is drop the phone, grab a book. It’s simple. Time to make that trip to the library:)

      FOR REAL. Getting away from consumption is priority number one! At least Mindless consumption that is!

      I agree. I opened a book yesterday. Been a while since I done so.

    I once read: "creativity is the opposite of productivity." I really think about it that way. If you focus on the final product (productivity), you will focus on the outcome rather than the process. With creativity you want to get distracted, and let your mind wander into the unkown.

    Wow this was phenomenal. Love the discipline of carrying the camera without the pressure to produce. Really enjoy that perspective 🤙🏼

    What helped me was to update my Instagram less frequently. I started enjoying photography again.

    Damn, I got emotional by the end of the video, I'm glad I'm not alone in this feeling of creating every single day or I'll be seen as lazy or an unproductive artist, still... I am an artist who can be enjoying a time where nothing happens, where nothing is being created whether I decide it or just don't feel like it; and that shouldn't feel bad. Thank you so much for this video, Topher c: Greetings from Venezuela.

    “Grind”, “Discipline” and “Relevance” mean nothing; they’re just words that social media tries to shove in our faces by self-help influencers who wouldn’t know the creative process if it whacked them upside the head. I create for the love and joy of it. I don’t have time to “prove” myself. Thanks for sharing such an enlightening video!

    Love your perspective, openness and honesty.
    I have worked hard to separate what I make between content and “the work” and that has helped me A LOT to find peace in making both.
    Excited to see how your perspective and work develops in the coming months. Thanks for sharing.

      Appreciate it! I'm in the headspace that me making these videos is all about learning and growing and less about making "perfect" things. I'm as much apart of the ride as the people watching!
