So… I fell off the blogging wagon. And you know what? For a few weeks, it’s kind of felt like this bad sabotaged diet, that I haven’t wanted to acknowledge, ya know, like when you finally really look in the mirror and see that some weight is piling back on? Because I was so happy… Continue reading Stops and Starts on our Journeys

Take it all off the table?
I had a wonderful experience a few days ago in my business/financial life, and I realized it connected terrifically to the way I try to grow as an artist.

I noticed that, due to… Continue reading Take it all off the table?

However, if you are like me, it can be nice to take a moment to acknowledge the little drops of progress being… Continue reading Progress and Multiple Projects!

The past week or so has been a challenging one for me. I’ve had some difficult things happen in my personal life, and have… Continue reading Emotions and Productivity
Treadmill days
For most of us, there is a list of tasks that, when combined, become the bare minimum of what’s required in a week for healthy adult functioning.
