Creation is usually an expression of surplus growth energy. Your life needs to expand more than your mind/body can handle, so you have to divert it to external loci. When you’re in contraction mode, any creative output is at the expense of some self-destruction. Few can do that.

The level and type of destruction is the precondition of ones next stage expansion. One can trim away sprouts, maybe new sprouts, or dig deeper to the roots and some different tree grows.
