Todd Henry on Beating Mediocrity and Sparking Creativity

The thing that I found has been the most transformative in my life, and the life of the people I work with, is building time into your life on a daily basis: to stop to read, to absorb stimuli, to commune with great minds, to think, to study, and then to process what it is you're reading.
What does it mean to truly thrive in your creative endeavors? Eric Zimmer dives into this question with Todd Henry, the mastermind behind Accidental Creative, in this episode of 'The One You Feed'. Todd, who calls himself an 'arms dealer for the creative revolution', shares his wisdom on avoiding the traps of mediocrity and embracing everyday brilliance.
They chat about the seven deadly sins of mediocrity and why it's crucial to carve out time in your life to pause, reflect, and think deeply. Todd's latest book, 'Die Empty: Unleash Your Best Work Every Day', is a treasure trove of strategies for unlocking your full potential and ensuring your work stands the test of time. This conversation also delves into common misconceptions about passion and categorizes different types of creative personalities like dreamers, drivers, and developers.
Todd opens up about his own journey through creative struggles and highlights the importance of personal growth. If you're looking to inject more purpose and creativity into your daily routine, this episode is packed with actionable insights that could change how you approach your work and life.
