The Importance of Prioritising and Protecting Your Creative Time

Written By Dave Haworth

I didn’t accomplish what I wanted, creatively, in 2025, and while it would be easy to say life got in my way, the truth is I didn’t prioritise and protect my creative time as I should have.

Yes, life kind of got in the way, but I could have made up for it by prioritising my creative time, say over social media scrolling.

To realise your creative potential, you need to be consistent in your creative practice and time. You need to prioritise and protect your creative time. I discuss the importance of prioritising and protecting your creative time in this vlog.
