Someone with high energy and drive requires minimal rest between projects and is fueled by being in the middle of the process. Someone else needs a lot of time to gather inspiration, energy and resources. However, once ready, things can get done fast, efficiently and with good quality.
Society seems to favor the first type of people, because they seem busy and productive in their constant motion. That makes the second type of people second guess their nature and feel guilty for the time that for outsiders looks like lazing around.
Guilt will eat any creativity if you let it linger around. Yet, people will beat themselves up and let others do it to them, not realizing that this is totally wrong.
Never, ever follow your guilt. But do follow your rhythm. Get curious about how you work, is there a pattern in your creative process?
Once you know it, you'll be far more productive then you have ever dreamt.
