"Obstacles are good news"- David Nichtern

“If you’re not hitting obstacles, you’re not really going anywhere, you know. When you have comfort and sort of a settled quality, you’re not really meeting any kind of challenge and you’re missing an opportunity to grow and expand what your capacity is.”

This quote, from episode 15 of our podcast with David Nichtern, discusses how in order to grow your business or self you need to face challenges. He encourages business owners and creatives to push and believe in themselves to overcome the obstacles they face. In addition to overcoming obstacles, we also uncovered topics such as how to get into your creative flow state to receive creative ideas, the role of commerce has in creativity, and the connection between creativity, spirituality, and entrepreneurship.
