"If you want to see a balanced world, you have to create that inside yourself."
~ Doaist saying
Many creatives might relate to living on the more rebellious side of life... not conforming to corporate jobs, wanting more, chasing dreams you might not have been told in school, and wanting to live more in sync with your creative aspirations.
Monk Yun Rou, published author of 14+ books, shares his perspective on creativity, writing, creative industries... from the perspective of a Daoist monk.
One question we discussed, and would love your thoughts on:
Do you enjoy the process of creating or having already created more? Or enjoy both equally? (no wrong answers!).
