I have joined a mentoring program with Gay Hendricks. I am SO stoked about it! By the end of the program, I will be a published author! I am beyond excited.
They talk about the “Creative Practice” and that this is something that can be done for 10 minutes each day. I used to have a creative practice while I was working. It was this here blog! Thing is, I rarely wrote for a mere 10 minutes. I used it as a way to escape my life drama. The life drama I was so excellent at creating and feeding.
Now that I am out of that unending spiral of drama – thank God(dess) for that! – I have ran into things that have halted that daily practice. First and foremost, for most of the time I have been away from my job, I have not had internet access readily available. That makes it difficult to post to a blog. I am also so busy with my own businesses that, by the time I get to internet access I am ready to work and get things done. I have made blogging a secondary issue.
While pondering the idea of a creative practice, I have realized that I have creativity flowing through me every day, now – almost every moment of every day. What I am understanding though, is that this is a focused period of time set aside SPECIFICALLY to practice creativity in new ways. Blogging is not a new way, but it is something I love. I commit to picking up that process again and adding it into the mix of my focused creative practice.
I love my life!
