”I had been old and stern for so long, carved with regrets and years like a monolith. But that was only a shape I had been poured into. I did not have to keep it.”

~ Madeline Miller, Circe

It sounds...familiar somehow.
Mhm.
It took for the world to shut down and close for many to awaken finally.
Like Circe, we’ve been carved with regrets and just now realizing it's our choice to move forward.

* Gary Vaynerchuk says to never negotiate your time upgrading weaknesses, rather, spend it solidifying your strengths. Many teachers and thought leaders of every kind say otherwise so what is a pathfinder supposed to do?😱
* To various degrees, I agree with both sides of the spectrum but where writing is concerned it's vital! One does not blink and merely obtain a perfectly chiseled physique because they hold a barbell and the same goes for writing.
* Every repetition gets you closer to the goal so the tapping of keys or scratching of a pencil will bring out the master. Work on your weaknesses. In order to be a better writer, it is vital to practice many forms and methods of the craft itself. Conveying your message not only playfully but with an artisanal touch.

* A long time ago, a land far beyond any modernity, there was a writer who wasn't depressed. This is a complete lie; for a creative doesn't have to steep in crippling emotion and fear their art will suffer if a happy thought floats by. WRONG!⠀
⠀
* I am aware of how depression seriously takes hold of you and ejects this mental fog into your world, but it gets better, I promise. I am visited by the depression monster often, for me, writing helps to ease the anxiety sitting atop my shoulder and telling him and his friend to take a hike.⠀
⠀
* Coming from a workaholic, going out is the ironic and best thing to do. Breathe the air around you and open your lungs and mind to all things outside of your mental prison. Fascinating ideas to create with and the "write" folk supporting along the way. A little fun won't take you away from or erase your next muse--it just might be what the doctor ordered.⠀

* Just write they say. It'll be easy they say.🙄Anyone who has ever sat down to put words on a blank page knows it is far from a trivial task. It's more of an adventure at times. Usually, the writer sees the page staring back with the blank slate imprinting the very anxiety they feel about filling it.

* Blank-page anxiety is real and is a strong factor in being a ”terrible” writer of any sort. A technique in which I've adopted is clearing the mental path of perfecting every word. In doing so it's easy to finish your thought and focus on the editing process after.🧐

Journaling oh the love/hate relationship we have.
I will admit that I sought refuge from life through a different means of the storytelling jive: something just for my thoughts and my own world to wander alone through.
I documented heavy moments in order to vent and sort through the mess and it was like I was talking to myself with all the world's wisdom. Until I stopped, that is and it was glorious negligence.

Instead of confronting all the very real problems any books, articles, or short story pose, I sometimes retreated to journaling and once my creative juices would create rather than burn out. free-associating the way ideas So you might be thinking why I'm bashing the divine place of the journal, right? Well, I see how it is a haven is great but think of it this way; change your story and change your life. Write something that matters to someone else.

•Are you ”working” your literary muscles with journaling
OR
•Loosing up your artistic tendons where it really matters?🤔 (photo: Annie Spratt on Unsplash)

•Creativity is like there is a balance and both are needed to live. The binary draws experiences from life and our own perspective; our lens in which we gaze through. At first, my empathism contradicted my hope of fitting in only until I realized this was how I was meant to find my balance.⚡

•The constant turning of being critical and emotional has taken my stories and breathed a certain life into them that is unique to me. There was once this feeling that I thought lost and until the many colors poured from every pore--that messy abstraction that made sense to me started to find a voice in others. 🗣

•In the end if I wasn't writing for me I know I wouldn't be here. Teachers and countless folk may come around, though, in the end, it was for me to decide. I let everything drive me and I've taken the wheel, bellowing even that it is alright to be and feel different. My is better because I used the world, it didn't use me.✌️🏻

-How does your brain work?
-No empaths necessary: do you listen to YOU?
-Why do you mesh these binaries together?

Since that fateful day, life has been altered,
I feel different like something is misplaced;
A door remains open and we both try to pass on,
Except one of us pays the bill.

Many signs point their direction beyond the herd,
The path set before me leaves my destiny encased,
Strolling forward without gazing back, wits drawn;
Payment was made and, yet much is left to instill.
