Now, let's be clear, there are two types of "easy" when you're choosing to take the Creative Genius "easy way". There's Quality easy and cheap easy. We're aiming for Quality, with a capital Q.

Quality easy has fewer things on the to-do list and is a brilliant delegator. Quality easy trusts the timing of things. It knows it's better to hold out for what's right than to deal with the mess of extracting from a bad compromise. Quality easy has a sense of expansiveness.

On the other hand... Cheap easy is a sucker for a discount. Cheap easy can't see that some
losses are gains. Cheap easy stays in a stifling relationship because it seems easier than facing the heartbreak and dividing up the furniture. Cheap easy is frequently in a rush, a smidge desperate, and usually scrambling for options.

Choose quality. Easy.
