Every day you can wake up and write in your journal, practice yoga, meditate, or create something visual. In other words, she can have a constant creative impulse routine that brings her joy.
But where does this daily practice lead? You feel energized and creative; ready to start the day, but something seems wrong. How can these creative activities lead you to a new awakening? What is it that you long for that you would like to see come to life?
It is in these moments when we need to begin formulating goals. To see a bigger or larger project based on our daily creative routines. It is vital and important to create every day. Now is the time to change the mentality.
There seems to be a necessary game between what could be called Passive versus Active creative work. The enjoyment of creating every day as part of your routine is necessary. Creating with a goal supports your need to be actively involved in your life’s purpose.
What is the main creative outlet in your life that you want to “solidify”? How can you work each day toward the goal of your project?
Below is a list of steps that will help you create goals for your project journey:
1. Set aside time each day to do your “work.”
2. Be Proactive: You have a dream to create this project, so set the stage for yourself and go for it.
3. When fears arise, practice affirmations, get supportive friends and share your thoughts, let negative thoughts go and come back immediately.
4. If a break is needed, give it a time limit and get back to your task.
5. Set your goals in reasonable time frames.
6. Start looking for places that would be good to share your work.
Take a look now at marketing, get ready to share your work, shows and presentations. This can be worked on together, but it is a necessary part of all creative work. How will you share it with others? Visualize what this will look like for you. Think about your audience. Who would be more interested? The big picture is presenting, performing and sharing your work.
Maybe you’ve always worried about the process of your creativity, but the wheels keep turning. The performance (the presentation of your work) is an opportunity to use the spinning wheels to propel your artwork upwards with the power of intention.
Where are you on your creative journey? Take time to reflect on your own work and goals and share your brilliance.
