How can I fight through that initial period and not give up?
When we sit down for doing some creative work, we give up too easily when it doesn’t happen immediately. Instead we need to be patient with ourselves. We need to be patient not to give up too early, or sometimes we never should be giving up. The reality is creative ideas are not common. We need to let our mind wander off. We are currently in a phase where there is a shortage of focus, shortage of patience.
