Maker times and manager times
I've learned recently about makers and managers. I'm definitely a maker.
Makers like to enter a flow state for hours on end when time disappears where deep work can happen -- practice, writing, editing, sculpting, painting, cooking ....
Managers reach the end of a day full of productive meetings, answered emails, and other complete administrative tasks feeling satisfied and gratified.
When a manager asks a maker to stop their work at 10am for a meeting, makers can get real real crusty, and managers are like, "What are you doing with that 4-hour open block in your calendar??"
And when makers and managers learn to combine and respect their wonder twin powers, lots of great synergy can happen.
If you're a maker who needs to do manager tasks (and we all do), it's great to plan your week accordingly -- days devoted more to making, and days that are more manager oriented. Or half the day for making and the rest for managing. Depends on your circadian rhythms, too.
In the coming months, I'm excited and I are going to be teaming up to build the studio and getting more work out into the world, and since she's a BOSS manager, I'm so grateful our respective skills can come together.
How can you support the maker and manager in you?
