First week of living as an artist rating 4/10. It was not as easy as I had in mind. Sitting down with the intent of doing something creative is more daunting than a good HIIT workout. I usually wait for inspiration; a very fickle fuel source, but I’ve been raw dogging some of these sessions to get some mileage in.
Did some sound design this week. Didn’t record as I wanted to. This week I have put the most effort into being an artist and it has felt like my least productive week. If artist is to get into flow then putting this much effort is a counterintuitive irony I’m not sure how to get past just yet. I’m calling this week a success; I did learn more within my craft. I will allow it.
If I may add… my perspective was actually different, I saw dedication this week. Waking up every day to music filling the atmosphere and beautifying my surroundings was inspirational. I witnessed determination and the prime execution of leadership by example. I can empathize with the personal rating, but you’re doing outstanding husband. Pride flourishes within me as I watch you work. 🖤
