I'm not saying fast is better than slow, or slow is better than fast. I'm just saying time changes the shape of creativity.
Shakespeare wrote under pressure because he had deadlines. His creativity was shaped by the need to deliver.
Einstein, on the other hand, had no real deadlines. His creativity was shaped by the need to understand. He had time to sit with ideas, rethink assumptions, and see patterns no one else saw.
Shakespeare would say: "Creativity is all about time. And writing by hand takes time."
And Einstein would reply: "Time does not exist my friend. So take your time and write it again."
