How do I manage my mental health as a creative

Patrick discusses the importance of mental health for creatives. He finds going to the gym helpful in recharging, even if he sometimes just pretends to work out. Exercising helps him turn off his brain and reduce stress. He also reads writings by trusted copywriters and marketers who discuss unconventional topics, such as “Rule Number Six” from “The Art of Possibility,” which advises not to take oneself too seriously. Although scheduling time to read can feel burdensome, it provides valuable insights. Patrick believes it’s important to embrace the idea of failure and not strive for perfection, as giving oneself permission to be imperfect leads to better work. Occasionally, he goes for walks to further support his mental well-being.
