Roadblocks, what is holding me back from going forward?
Pretty easy to answer:
1. time
2. space to create (the beads have taken over my studio)
3. overwhelmed by my out-of-date mailing list.
Easy to handle:
15 minutes, 3 times a day:
1. work on cleaning up and arranging my studio - make room for illustration.
2. use the market guides to update my mailing list.
3. start by sketching 15 minutes each day.
While I was camping I discovered that I love to go outside and sketch in the mornings. I feel like it's a great way to start the day.
Something in your life seems overwhelming? Remember you can eat an elephant one bite at a time. Gross, okay, well you can climb a mountain one step at a time. Break down your goal into baby steps and go for it. Anyone else out there reaching for a creative dream? I'd love to hear about your story and cheer you along.
Hey Heather! All this is so true. I'm reaching for about 25, no, make that 125 different goals right now, and I can relate to every single thing you've said.
Its good to know we're all in the same boat, and go through the same process getting there.
My thing is just forcing myself to FOCUS. And be organized with my time and space. And setting a daily goal ~ "Today I will do THIS", then actually do it. Baby steps...

P.S. Sorry, I forgot to say I LOVE your beads!
