Friction is the Enemy

Friction kills most creative work.

Not time. Not talent. Just resistance—the drag between intention and execution.

A mechanical watch fights friction with every tick. The less friction, the more precise it becomes. Same with writing, building, shipping. The cleaner the movement, the better the outcome.

Mental clutter is friction. Emotional noise is friction. People can be friction too—when their opinions hijack your attention.

You don’t eliminate friction by thinking. You eliminate it by moving.

Start typing. Let the fingers move.
Flow before edits.
Motion before spark.
