Publisher's Synopsis
Break free from perfectionism and finish your creative projects: A unconventional guide to overcoming creative blocks and finally completing your work through strategic imperfection. The world is full of creative people—why do some get their ideas out in the world while others don't? Why are some incredibly prolific while others struggle with deadlines or can't complete projects? In this book, Jason F. McLennan—a master in "getting stuff done"—shares secrets to boosting productivity, innovation, and personal success. By adopting his "3/4 baked" philosophy and the key lessons that surround it, it is possible to dramatically increase output, while helping creative juices flow. McLennan's recipe for creative success includes ideas to help you: • look forward to failure • discover the power of feedback • learn to become a 'trim tab' • harness the power of momentum to drive creativity We've all heard the phrase "the perfect is the enemy of the good"—perfection is often what holds so many people back. Trying to reach it means that nothing much can get completed, and inspiration itself is often blocked as people either procrastinate or endlessly self-edit. By chasing perfection, it remains elusively further away. The world is full of half-baked ideas—but almost no perfect ones. With The Magic of Imperfection, learn how you can seriously amp up what you do, how fast you do it, and simultaneously how well it gets done.
