The part of the “xxx is not for creative work” argument that bothers me is the assumption that “creative work” cannot be organized and planned. Let’s call writing, programming, … simply “work,” not “creative work,” and we have to do them like other kinds of work.<p>Of course, some parts of everybody’s work need more focus&#x2F;mental energy&#x2F;physical energy&#x2F;..., but that doesn’t mean they are special and can get away with being disorganized.<p>Van Morrison once said in an interview that when he has a song to write he simply sits down and works on it, whether he feels like it or not. Are our iOS apps more “creative” than his songs?
