Don't focus on hope of drawing more get some discipline into your life. What you can do is make a hard rule that you draw at a certain time for a certain amount of time. That getting the wishful think out the door and it will building a time where you are accountable to yourself.

It certainly isn't the most freeing drawing experience you can have to have fix drawing time, but we can't always wait for all the planet to align to start putting the work.

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.

You don't necessary need to be always in those artistic space.What you might need is to separate your time more clearly or rearrange the space yea that not what will get art done you might say at first but. Let say you work in a space where you also enjoy other distraction well this doesn't put you in that creative head space it conflicting because now you are around all those thing you can just sit back and enjoy without effort so naturally your brain goes why would i work when there all those other thing i enjoy.It a bit like having a cellphone nearby all the time it very distracting will i get a notification? Let just go check my what my favorite artist what is he doing or saying...

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.

You must go out and enjoy a rich life full of experience to have that urge to share that with other. But it hard sometime to break out from the experience and switching to the seat of inviting people into your world.
