Listening to Your Muse


When I am still or have time to myself to just "think" it always seems to be about art and creating art. I usually think about the process of creating a piece, the concept of something I want to design, and what I want the message to be. I find this to be for the most part a blessing, because it entertains me and inspires me. It is nice to think and daydream about the creative process. Where there may be a problem is if all the daydreaming and thinking about the process does not ever lead to anything.


Life lesson for today:
"Listen to your inner muses. Great thoughts should lead many times to great actions. In-action is your enemy."


In-action is your enemy in the sense that if you have some awesome creative stuff running through your mind, and it never comes to fruition, it is a shame. One's creative voice should not be suppressed. All of us have a right to be creative. Embrace it.
