Feeling confident in whatever creative work you're making is such a relief. It means ideas are flowing out and you're able to let serendipitous moments come in and help you build it. That's really the key to any successful work is that element of surprise you put in it

I heard someone say this recently & it rings true, if you stick rigidly to what you're trying to make, you will make exactly that or something below. If you free yourself to feel confident, not be overly supervised, itll allow more surprises to come into the work you didnt expect

This applies especially to team projects where communication is tested and essential to keep the core theme and vision intact. Theres no better feeling than seeing your team work with that confidence of knowing what they're making. Everything is enhanced

The concept of a single vision holder or auteur, is a rare unicorn. And even than most of them rely heavily on empowering people they work with to help contribute and create it in meaningful ways. The micromanagers will be the ones who have faulty execution in their works.
