What keeps you motivated?
I’ve been feeling bombarded with life things happening lately and I know I should be taking time to slow down and paint to get myself back on track and let go of some of the stresses that are happening. It’s tough when there’s a lot going on though and I know we can all relate. It’s been mentioned a couple times here already, that guilty feeling that creating isn’t a top priority when other things need to be taken care of, around the house, for work, for kids, just all the life stuff..
So I would love to hear some of the things that help keep everyone motivated, whether it’s related to art and creativity or not, I believe this could be helpful for us all to see that we’re not alone and maybe learn a trick or two to help each other out 😇
Personally, my family is always my first priority so I’m always pushing myself to be better for them, keep the house clean, do the things I don’t want to do if it’s going to benefit us in the long run. Unfortunately sometimes that means I push my own needs to the side, but at the same time I think it’s important to show my kids how important it is to keep the creativity alive and pursue passions. So I’ve always got a couple projects I’m working on for myself, even if it takes longer to complete them than I would like.
Here’s my current work in progress, I’m chipping away at these good boys when I can, even if it’s not as much as I would like. They sit in my studio and remind me daily that I should take the time to sit down and work on them when I can 💚 practicing grace and patience with myself though so I don’t spiral out and feel too bad for when I can’t make the time for them.
Let’s see what you’re working on, how you find motivation to take the time for yourself and your passion, and if there’s any way I can support you please let me know!
