Started reading The Creative Act and love it so far. It's a perfect complement to The War Of Art, which frames creativity as a daily battle to prepare for. Develop grit, sharpen your blade, etc. Whereas Rubin approaches from the transcendental, spiritual angle.

I got a quarter of the war of art and felt weird about it. I was expecting a profound think piece but kinda got hung up on the author’s choices of analogy and general patriarchal tone. It felt like for every good analogy there were 2 weird ones.

I’ll have to keep listening a bit more. I always love his interviews, but the beginning was a bit out there for me

Rick’s book is the closest to my approach. Bought a copy for me daughter when she gets old enough.

Excellent recommendations. The War of Art in particular has really useful mental models and practical ways to use and leverage them The Creative Act does as well, and has a lot of helpful lens to help view things from different perspectives Great reccos

Loved Rubin‘s linen-like bound brick of a book! Surrendering and allowing inspiration to come naturally can be so freeing, yet challenging at the same time!

I love both, especially Rubin’s book. Gold on every page. I’ve already gifted it to several friends.
