Chapter 5 - Steal Like an Artist [Book Summary]
The 5th chapter of the book was Side projects and hobbies are important.
Austin suggested keeping all your passions in your life.
It’s good to have a lot of projects going at once, so you can bounce between them.
When you get sick of one project, move over to another and so on. Practice productive procrastination.
It’s something I have been practicing too.
When I don’t feel like working on a project, I work on another one, and switch back to it a few minutes/hours later. These might be client's content or for my personal projects, but I like to work on different projects.
And if I don’t feel like writing altogether, I would be doing something else. Every such project comes through some inspiration, some stealing here and there.
“The work you do while you procrastinate is probably the work you should be doing for the rest of your life.”
