The Fifth Element: The Million Words Project Weeks 21 and 22

A few weeks ago, I talked a little bit about how I attempt to be intentional with my creative life.
In that video, I spoke about my weekly planning date with myself, and my belief that by imposing some restrictions and guidelines on myself, I'm actually freeing myself up for creative tasks.
Imposing limits seems like the opposite of the freedom found in creativity, but I firmly believe that it isn't good for my creative rhythm and artistic flow to just leave my creative life up to chance.
The problem is, when I spoke about scheduling and planning, I only covered four of the key components of my method.
I left out the very important Fifth Element.
