Procrastination and Distraction are clever adversaries. This one-two-punch-tag-team-duo will
wrestle your creativity to the ground, pin it to the mat and leave it begging
for mercy.
Scroll through your Facebook convincing yourself that links to “The
Seven Things Everyone Should Do…” is empowering. Flip through Instagram telling yourself that viewing other
people’s dinner is fulfilling. Keep
checking (and re-checking) your inbox just in case something “new and
important” arrives.
Keep doing this and your Artist won’t stand a chance in this fight.
These outlets are fine, but they are not your work. Don’t engage your social media because
you are searching for something to say.
Search yourself and discover you actually have something you have to
express. Don’t envy another
‘Friend’s’ latest carefully filtered picture; envision the place you want to go
and, by all means, start moving towards it.
Procrastination and Distraction can only levy the strength you give
them.
Don’t give in. Don’t
surrender. You've only got one fight…come
out of your corner swinging.
