“Everyone is born creative; everyone is given a box of crayons in kindergarten. Then when you hit puberty they take the crayons away and replace them with dry, uninspiring books on algebra, history, etc. Being suddenly hit years later with
the ‘creative bug’ is just a wee voice telling you, ‘I’d like my crayons back, please.” – Hugh MacLeod

Tuesday
tues·day
/ˈt(y)o͞ozˌdā/
Noun
The day of the week following Monday and right before Wednesday.
I’ve always felt that Tuesdays are the laid-back day of the week. Can’t tell you why.
Tuesday use to be the slowest day in retail. Not sure if that still stands.
Manic Mondays must cause Toned Down Tuesdays 🙂
Lovin’ Tuesday.
Leap Already and the Net Will Appear
Cleaning out the studio and found the great book by Mary-Elaine Jacobsen, Psy.D called The Gifted Adult.
I was flipping through the lessons of becoming an Everyday Genius and I immediately received an email about the very same book.
Coincidence? I think not!
Whether you check out the book or not, it doesn’t matter. What matters is that it might be the book you want to write, or the business you want to build, or the blog you want to start, or the art you want to create.
Whatever it is, ask yourself the question: Am I willing to work hard to bring that ideal vision to life?
HARD WORK being the operative word(s). That means reading the directions all the way through and working through the roadblocks that weren’t in your original vision. Probably because you didn’t have a plan in the first place … you just saw a cool ending. (deep thoughts … from personal experience with Mara) Think it all the way through, before you throw money at it.
“There is surely no point in being a person of vision unless we have the will to act. Daydreams and inklings about taking our personal mission seriously must be translated into action or be lost in the dust of “could have but didn’t.”” ~ Mary-Elaine Jacobsen, Psy.D. from The Gifted Adult
Could have. Should have. Would have.

The creative is the place where no one else has ever been. You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you’ll discover will be wonderful. What you’ll discover is yourself. – Alan Alda
