What You Won’t Be Doing
- Constantly being interrupted by meetings; you’ll get in the zone and do deep creative work
- Sticking to the tools and techniques you’ve always used; you’ll be forever expanding your creative arsenal
- Being told exactly what to do and when to do it; you’ll flex your creative muscle daily
