You must have a room, or a certain hour or so a day, where you don’t
know what was in the newspapers that morning, you don’t know who your
friends are, you don’t know what you owe anybody, you don’t know what
anybody owes to you. This is a place where you can simply experience and
bring forth what you are and what you might be. This is the place of
creative incubation. At first you may find that nothing happens there.
But if you have a sacred place and use it, something eventually will
happen.
― Joseph Campbell, The Power of Myth
Joseph Campbell was a wise man, and this is sage advice! Thanks for sharing, Emily!
