Describe Your Experience…

Experience is the word that I have on my mind today. I’m talking about both my creative experience as I work through creative projects and my age and experience that I carry with me each day. The latter type of experience covers more than just my creative work and often adds breadth and depth to my creative work if I relax long enough to let it.

One of Those Words!!

Discipline is one of those words that sometimes I really don’t want to use, much less hear used.. However, without it, I would never get my work done, especially as a creative person. It’s not that I’m lazy, though I have my days, it’s just that I don’t really like the idea of disciplined work. I learned early to do what I was told, as most children did, and I also learned early to feel frustrated about being told what to do all of the time. I wanted to do well, but I didn’t always make the grade, whichever one was priority at the moment.. I see myself as being someone who learned to meet deadlines out of fear, as much as I learned to meet them out of interest and motivation about finishing the project.

Where Are You On The Willingness Continuum?

Willingness is the topic for this week. I started writing about willingness the latest Coaching Creatively newsletter and would like to continue the discussion.

Where does willingness show up in your creative work?
**Do you work consistently to create products in your discipline?
**Do you spend time with other artists for support and networking?
**Do you set and meet reasonable goals in your creative work?
**Do you keep track of your income and expenses, not only for tax purposes, but so that you can assess the direction of your business on a daily or weekly basis?
