Robert Rodriguez

And I was doing this talk where they introduced me and said, Robert Rodriguez, writer, director, editor, composer, long list of all the jobs I do. And I went up there like, wow, I get tired just hearing that list. And I keep seeing that book, The One Thing. And I thought, at first I thought, that's not me. But I realized, you know what? I don't just do all those things.

There's one thing I really do that ties all those together. When you think about it, I do one thing, and it's I live a creative life. And if you commit to living a creative life, like literally applying creativity to everything you do, your workout in the morning, how you interact with your kids, the meal you cook, what you're going to do that night, a business call you take, be creative.

is available to you because what 90% of that job is just being creative. And if you're doing it all day, you're always going to be in a flow. If you don't embrace that and you go about your daily life and you don't apply creativity, well, when you go home that night to write your novel or something, you're going to be blocked because you're not in a creative flow.

Because I found I was most successful, happiest, and most fulfilled when I was being creative. So why not just do that 24-7? And it's been a life changer. It's been doing that like 15 years with consciousness. Like consciously say. Because people don't like to say they're creative. Like when I ask, are you creative? And Lexi goes, well... Yeah, you know, like stumbling through.

Because people think being an artist means you have to have the mustache and the hat. And it's like, no, artists are regular people. And regular people are flawed. And that's why you relate to something that they do because it's flawed. If you made it perfect, they couldn't relate to it because humans are flawed. And if you think of it that way, you go, well, I can create flawed stuff.

Oh, well, that was an accident because I didn't get what I really wanted. And I had to make this work. And that was an accident. They like those acts. They respond to those accidents in a big way. because they're from another universe.
