The Artist’s Journey: How to Get Unstuck Using the Transcendent Function

Why do so many artists fail? It’s not because of their art. It’s because of their *mindset.

If you’ve ever wondered how to become a successful artist, the first thing to do is to accept the artists’s journey. Accept that the path is winding, long, and somewhat confusing. But that’s not the same as impossible.

In today’s episode, we’ll talk about being stuck — whether you feel stuck in your creative process or feel stuck in your career. We’ll use two philosophies — Carl Jung’s theory of the Transcendent Function, and a very simple and powerful way to reach goals with Inversion Thinking. And at the end, we’ll put it all together into a fast, practical exercise to help you get unstuck.

*Also capitalism, but that’s another episode for another day!
