This week's podcast features Jesse's recent conversation with Merlin Mann about his forthcoming book Inbox Zero, the difference between thinking and doing, distractibility, and perceived barriers to doing work. In other words, how (and why) you should just keep moving.

Ep. 12: Keep Moving

Merlin Mann shared his thoughts on creativity and producing creative work in a very popular talk at last year's MaxFunCon. Maybe you couldn't make it in 2009. Well, you lucky duck, Merlin will be joining us again this year. In anticipation of next week's podcast, in which Jesse will be talking to him about his upcoming book, we're sharing the advice he gave at MaxFunCon 2009. Merlin is great at breaking down the process of making art, or writing, or however you choose to be awesome and helping you think clearly about how you can stop stalling and just get started. So what are you waiting for?
