Anyone who has ever created things as their job knows that one of the hardest aspects of that arrangement can be figuring out what to work on next. Often there's a tendency to match the output of the people—and social media accounts—around you, or to one-up your last project. And all of that can spiral out of your control pretty quickly until you're stuck in a very stressful and confusing place creatively.

In the next episode of his travel photography series Personal Work, Forrest Mankins argues that there's another way forward and into your next project or endeavor. Sometimes knowing what to do next is as simple as asking yourself what you want to do next. Even if what you want is to go chill and hang out with a good friend.
