Art Work

It is a strategy for many artists and athletes to set a minimum daily requirement for work. But each person has to find what works for them. And they may discover that it might be ever-changing. For me I can't put a predetermined minimum on what I do unless it is ridiculously achievable otherwise I feel like a failure if I don't make it and the next thing you know I am vacuuming under the stairs or cleaning the coffee pot with a toothbrush rather than working at the things I care about. I speak from having treated myself extraordinarily badly in this regard for decades. Now the best way for me to get results is to just show up and be grateful for whatever happens.
