About this listen
You're not bad at creating—you're following someone else's process built for their brain, not yours. Your signature character strengths (like curiosity, perseverance, zest, or self-regulation) determine which creative workflows energize versus exhaust you, but most creators try to force-fit themselves into popular methods that work against their wiring. Take the free VIA Character Strengths Survey (10 minutes) to identify your top 5-7 strengths, then audit your current process: Where are you fighting your natural strengths instead of leveraging them? Redesign your workflow around what energizes you. High curiosity thrives on research phases, high perseverance excels at structured iteration, high zest needs spontaneity and raw first takes. Stop treating misalignment in other people's recipes for success as a discipline problem.
