Travel Diaries: Discover Beauty…

Leave a comment

Dear Friends!

My encouragement for you today is to take a minute to step outside of your comfort zone and try something new. Meet a new person from a different culture, ethnic group, religious group, etc. Make an attempt at that project that you’ve been dreaming of doing for years. Challenge your everyday routine and understanding of your world.

You may be surprised at what you will find. You may discover that you’ve had the ability to do whatever you’ve wanted to do all along. You may discover that people are intrinsically the same all over the world. That your neighbour of a different culture or native tongue has similar hopes and dreams for their family, for their lives. You may gain a new friend and community along the way. You may find that even though someone has a different perspective on life, they are still worthy of Love and understanding. You may learn to love without judgement.

You may discover beauty.

The Daily Routines of Creative Folk…

One of the things I’ve been working on this past month is refining my daily routine. There are soo many projects, soo many ideas, soo many people to network with and time is of the essence!

I’m fine tuning my dailies and sticking to them.

A friend of mine posted the above infographic on his facebook page awhile back and I found it pretty insightful and encouraging for two reasons:

  1. As a creative, it’ ok that I don’t fit into the typical 9-5 grind
  2. My daily grind and process is different and perfectly fine

Everyone’s grind is different and once you come to terms with the way you work, you lend yourself to greater productivity and unique work

Recognizing that your creative process is different and accepting it for what it is can lend to the uniqueness of work and greater productivity.

What does your daily work routine look like?
