The enemy of art is the absence of limitations. 

I don’t try to guess what a million people will like. It’s hard enough to know what I like. 

Being a creative person is very much a double-edged sword when it comes time to get a new project started. On the one hand, most creative types have no shortage of ideas for a script or story floating in their head at any given time (which can be a great place to start), but on the other hand, being highly creative means that your mind tends to wander from idea to idea which can be a hindrance during certain parts of the writing process.

Many of you writers that are reading this can probably relate to the feeling of having so many ‘good ideas’ for your script, but not being able to choose one and run with it, because of it likely conflicts with some of the other ideas that you have been mulling over as well. The best thing that you can do to avoid this situation is setting some limitations and rules for yourself when writing to allow for your concept to be given more direction from the get-go.
