10 Minutes

25 May 2010 No Comment

That’s all you need to come up with something great. 11 minutes and you could fuck it all up. 10 minutes and only 10 minutes. Great work is too often killed by spending or wasting too much time over thinking or over working. You can’t over think in 10 minutes. You might feel guilty for not working long enough. Fuck guilt. 10 minutes starting now. Don’t turn on your computer. Don’t get a cup of coffee. Don’t set up a meeting. Don’t make a big deal of it. Wake up. Grab a pen, pencil or whatever is closest and start doing what you do. Don’t even think. Just write or draw or do whatever it is you do.

Nine minutes and 55 seconds. I’m done.
