Find your own pace: artists, do not rush your mission.
Why am I not there yet? What am I doing wrong? Dear creative mind, this is a question we’ll explore together in today’s episode, as I will be reading a letter I wrote back in the Spring of 2022: Artists, do not rush your creative mission.
Some journaling prompts you may want to reflect on:
Do I really have to change the situation or my perspective of it? Do I need to adjust the goal or the measuring stick? Can I take a step back and let go of the microscope to witness my growth, and just trust that it will?
Instead of rushing and finding ways to grow faster, how can I simplify my path and make it easier to navigate?
If I knew with certainty that this project would come to life, how would I approach it?
Is this pace something I am self imposing? Or is it a rhythm that was imposed upon me?
What would it look like to follow a pace that allows me to enjoy the journey getting to my goal?
What would need to change compared to my current pace?
What creates a feeling of urgency or a need to rush? Where does it come from?
How can I self-regulate when I notice impatience or hustle stories pop up?
