You’re striving for creative breakthroughs. How do you balance planning and spontaneity effectively?

Creative breakthroughs happen when you’re having fun. Period.

Sure, you can do your frameworks, planning, all that stuff which your mind, experience, Google or AI tells you.. but real breakthroughs? They’re always an outcome of your mind having fun, coming up with things you never planned or imagined.

Keep consuming great quality ideas – movies, songs, cartoons, books.. build those dots to connect. But then? Just have fun. Play.

The more you don’t chase creative breakthroughs, the more they come to you.. like that butterfly which sits on your hand the moment you stop chasing it.

All the best

Your team is afraid to take risks. How can you shift their mindset towards embracing failure for innovation?

Let’s stop using words like ‘risks’ or ‘failures’.. all great work, all innovation happens with a sense of play. Not with this pressure of achieving something.

Start small – tiny experiments where stakes are low. One video, one campaign, one crazy idea at a time. Build confidence through small wins.

Make it a game – every week, try something nobody’s done before. Celebrate the experiments, not just the outcomes. Document learnings, build on what works.

The more your team gets comfortable with experimenting, the more natural innovation becomes. It’s like muscle memory – the more you play, the better you get.

Bottom line? Create that safe space for play first. Innovation follows. All the best

We long for it, yet we avoid it.. how strange.

Be it creativity, joys, love, peace or freedom – the very things we seek, we delay. I procrastinated for a year and a half to make my first video which went viral.. it was an accident.

To create was a dream I was carrying, a desire I was chasing for a long time.

Only thing which stopped me.. perfection.

What the journey has taught me.. It’s not about perfection, it’s about progress.

All we need is one tiny step. One tiny step. One tiny step today, even if it’s five minutes.. because five minutes every day and after a week you’ll be further ahead than you were all this time waiting and avoiding.

5 minutes today.
