 You had an idea.
You fell in love with it. Eventually, you started telling people about how excited you were about this idea. Some of those people even encouraged you and thought it was great

 Everyone has certain things they feel they must experience in life. Too often, we allow things to get in the way of those visions becoming a reality. Norms, routine, fear, etc., and we can forget to overlook the first step of overcoming these obstacles. But that very first step is to visualize. To be still, wonder, and realize that your life must have more. Not for selfish reasons, but because life is made to be an adventure. You can't have that adventure without the curiosity to guide you.
That's why I love vision boards. Because they're a tool to help you do exactly that - visualize.  I think it's time we stop running from fear. It's also time to stop fighting it. Instead, we should become one with it. Shake its hand and welcome it in. Bravery doesn't result from running away. We don't gain strength from going senseless. But if you can walk through life with a willingness to embrace challenges, and be intentional as you go about it, you will experience freedom.
 Five words: It's. Been. Way. Too. Long.
As you can see, it’s been about a month since my last blog post. Much has happened and I’m excited to write on a regular basis again. Feeling stuck as a creative is extremely difficult. I've been thinking about that lately and it's so complex that I can come up with many theories about it. However, the interesting thing is that I know exactly what steps I need to take in a situation like this. So I keep asking myself why I'm too nervous to take those steps.
I think I finally have the answer. I'm about to go through some massive creative growth spurts, and it's going to be amazing. Life can feel weird sometimes. But I'd rather call this my "preparation phase" and ditch the "rut" idea. |
