Quote:It require a certain amount of will power and ability to say no thing to get thing done the problem is we often feel like we are missing out on life when we say no .Let argue to the contrary art doesn't have to be a solitary thing it can be collaborative .The thing is find a space where you can allow yourself to be surrounded by creative people who allow you to feel like you would be rather there creating art than elsewhere. Obviously being around artist can also have negative effect that you must be aware of because it can impact your productivity. It not always drama free in the art community.Being surrounded by people who have the same goal as me was one of the best things that happened to me, I don't see it as a negative
Quote:I say those thing to let you know that being productive is also a matter of perception and environment if you are doing other thing that are productive at a certain point you might fill like you have been productive enough for the day that unless you are a workaholic. So it important to allow yourself to rest.So that you can perceive yourself as productive yes we can always judge were self and say i need to be more productive but the question is are you allowing yourself to move into that capacity... or is it just hope.I see that you like to make a lot of assumptions, but you need to consider that people have different realities and the free time that people have will not be the same
