It can be really hard to make ANY progress at a time like this. It might seem like since you can’t do a lot of things you are used to, that you have all this free time. And surely with free time you will be really productive. But NO! Actually this is all super weird and it’s normal to be UNproductive and just need to put your head in the sand, barely able to drag yourself to the shower (Heh. Have I said too much?) Achieving anything is herculean and extraordinary.
The Creative Progress facebook group is a free space to expressing your creativity, take care of yourself on a level that helps you be more of the person you feel designed to be, and be positive. We all want to achieve goals, but we make taking care of ourselves the #1 priority. It is so easy to get down about everything that isn’t done, so that is why being positive is so important. I truly believe it helps all of us to get more done in a way that feels good in our soul. So I encourage you to use this space to vent in the “poop thread” about stuff that is getting you down, to dream big, to celebrate SMALL microscopic victories in your day, and be super duper nice to yourself. Because the most important thing is you feel supported by you, for you, and loved no matter what you accomplish or don’t accomplish.
When I take this attitude of total nonjudgement and self support….that I end up remembering that being creative is FUN and it happens naturally after a while!!! We do not want anyone burnout or feeling overwhelmed or buried under the pressure. But boy it sure would be nice to do something cool that you love doing, that makes you feel expressed.
If you haven’t joined us yet in the group, come on over! It’s free.
