You can't rush the creative process. You need lots of "nothing" first. You see that spike? ☝️ That's where creative magic happens. But notice the "nothing" on either side? That's the space. The breathing room. The "cooking." AKA The mental space your creatives need. But do you know DOES speed up the process? 👀 Creative Strategy: Which brings your Data <> Creative together. P.S. Just remember this warning: Data should be your "have you thought of this?" person. Not your "yes" person. Creative strategy is all about finding harmony between data and creative. It's a delicate dance, not a forced march. These "nothing" periods aren't wasted time. They're how you bring harmony to your Data + Creative. Give your creatives (and your data) room to breathe. You might be surprised at what emerges. ✌️✨ Join us July 16 for a creative testing showdown: https://lnkd.in/gfDn_WWG
Absolutely agree! The creative process needs time and patience to truly flourish. Rushing it can often compromise the quality and originality of the work.

So true! Trying to be creative all the time is just like trying to build muscle by working out the same muscle group. Every. Single. Day. It just needs time to recover. Love the way you called it "breathing room" 👏
So true! If you want creative workers, give them enough enough time to play.
That "nothing" space is where the magic happens. It allows for incubation, exploration, and unexpected connections. Great reminder that creative strategy is about fostering that space, not rushing it.
The creative process can't be forced. Don't schedule 30 minutes to come up with an idea.
Creative ideas just come to you. Creativity can never be forced. The worst time an exceptionally good idea comes is when you just lie down and close your eyes.
