Rain in June 2021 - playing with video creation
I have far too many different things that I like to do and keeping them all going is nearly impossible. However I am also not willing to give any of them up. It also means that I constantly have so many things I want to try and do.
So I have a tendency to flip from one thing to the next. I will normally spend anything from a week to 3 months fixed on one thing and then it is like I need a break from that and I switch to something else.
In the beginning this used to worry me. I kept hearing successful creatives talking about their flow and their routines and the importance of consistency. These are all good things and for a long time that’s what I wanted more than anything, almost to the point where I came close to throwing in the towel and quitting it all because I couldn’t make it happen the way I thought that it should or needed to.
All this thinking and obsessing and analysing of my methods or routines and how my everyday tends to play out has forced me to look at things from many different angles and I woke up today and realised that I do actually have a routine. It isn’t the prettiest routine and I am pretty sure its not actually that efficient but it’s mine, it is the way that I work and it is what works for me.
So I know that I will continue to do a lot of different things and I will always want to learn new things and try new things and I am not the kind of person that can work on one thing without my mind wandering away. And I am ok with that. It is time for me to embrace my own unique way of seeing the world and creating within it all the things I want to create.
