Long time no see
A post sharing my updates and why a gap from posting anything on this site. Long story short - I was dealing with some other things.
Put in 100 hours...
A creative habit is supposed to ignite the sparks of creativity, and also to make you feel calm in the fast-paced world. So try doing a creative habit for 100 hours before hopping to the next one.
You just need to decide.
The first step towards building creative habits is making a conscious decision to prioritize creativity in our lives. This decision requires a shift in mindset, recognizing that creativity is not a luxury but a necessity to bring peace and a sense of fulfillment to our lives.
To document is to remember
Your creative habits may be small. but keeping the files either physically or digitally scanning them, adding a little date on each day, or writing down things that you are feeling at that moment can count as documenting your work.
Friend of everyone, an enemy of yourself
Heard these lines from Mike Tyson and thinking about it ever since. [seed idea - Will update as more ideas collate]
Creative habits are like music in your life.
In busy life sometimes music gives us a feeling of hope, of a brighter tomorrow and also, that invincible hand that reaches to help us. So, in that same way, creative habits build those support hands daily on the lookout for the unseeable future. This post is an extension of this thought.
Transformation Than Imitation
Watched the talk between Austin Kleon and Colin and Samir. I found the video to be filled with interesting points to take. Hence, writing a few thoughts.
Of 24, I ask you for 1...
That is all I ask, to give yourself to form a creative habit with no expectations or deadlines.
Rail against the dying day
I got inspired by these beautiful lines from the song - sleep on the floor by The Lumineers. I wrote a few lines about it.
Movies x paintings
Every new idea is a mashup or a remix of previous ideas. I take this thought and started a creative experiment where I add movie scenes and paintings of artists to bring out new magical realism kinda vibe images.
When the time comes...
When you think of starting a creative habit and you think to yourself - whether it is the right time. This post is to help you tell that the best time to start is now.
Sometimes life happens, and it's alright!
There is nothing more chaotic than the mind battling between wanting to address the situation and also to keep the routine going. Today's post is just a reminder to say that life happens, and it's alright.
