1) I'm not overthinking things. I'm "doing" the book in part due to my tendency towards logic brain / over-intellectualizing everything, so realize up front that I need to play with this book; not think of it as a graded assignment : )
2. I can already see that some parts are less important in unblocking my creativity. For example, the Week 1 task dealt with people and events that have discouraged you from creative activities. I don't think that is a big part of my "issue", so I might be putting less time into those responses. BUT, I can also see that this process may result in the uncovering / discovery of hidden blocks that I never thought were issues.
3. I'm sure that everyone has times in their life when this book calls to them & others when it doesn't. It may be best to sit it aside until it calls for you!(less)
