Summary

Creativity knows no bounds but it’s best captured within set limits. Author and journalist David Epstein joins host Krys Boyd to discuss why too many choices make it hard to start a project, how to avoid leaning on the status quo when we don’t know where to start, and how we can unlock our unlimited potential. His book is “ Inside the Box: How Constraints Make Us Better .” Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices
