war of art

Think­ing about time a lot late­ly.

All kinds of WHYn­ing –

Bec a wrench threw my time­line off a few years back and I didn’t even know I cared about time til it was wrenched?

Bec I have 5 min­utes to de­cide if I want ba­bies or not?

Bec I should be cre­at­ing but I an­swer busi­ness emails in­stead?

So­lu­tion to time-ob­sess­ing:
Paint more, flesh out the ur­gent some­thing that hasn’t tak­en shape or form yet in my work.

It’s so strong, it’s ac­tu­al­ly killing me some­times. And there’s good ol’ re­sis­tance, even when I have a new book com­ing out in Fall.

Ac­com­plish­ments don’t chase away re­sis­tance. But I rec­og­nize that re­sis­tance comes be­fore any leap you’re about to make/need to take.

There’s prob some­thing you’re sup­posed to be do­ing, too, but you fill up your time do­ing dis­tract­ing, me­nial, ‘busy’ tasks –

soul-crush­ing in­stead of goal-crush­ing. You have time. I have time. Time to leap.

Just have to pri­or­i­tize, carve out hours … and just do it! ❤️
