I find that breaking a creative rut requires letting go of my repetitive blinkered concentration, and investing more time and energy into learning about the new which may lead to dead ends: but at least I've learned something that may come in use another time. Learning to touch-type over hunt-and-peck is a great way of reminding ourselves how difficult it can be to get ourselves out of an inefficient rut, and if it's even worth spending time and energy to do so compared to other activities.
That’s an amazing analogy! It’s hard to break habits like hunt-and-peck even when we know how inefficient it is. And I like the acceptance of dead ends as a convoluted method of progress. I’ve never charted a straight path to anything I’ve ever made.
Yes, it shows that we're all somewhere on the spectrum of being drug addicts and dealers to ourselves; and particular types are selected by society because it helps in the continued development of this biological process called life we're all born into.
❤❤❤❤❤ I’m so glad you enjoyed my box 😉 But this isn’t quite what I meant when I requested a showering video 🤔 I do often find myself in a similar situation, though, but it’s more of a creative distraction than a rut. I’ve got all these unfinished creative projects - whether it’s a drawing, a craft, a story I want to write, or a coding project I’ll get distracted by something new I want to try and come back to a previous project several months later if at all. Maybe a therapist could help me figure out why but honestly who can afford one in this economy. P.S. when are you dropping the “Creative Rut” single? Cause it’s honestly kind of a banger
Therapy is really inaccessible because of the cost. You’re welcome to keep sending boxes of treats if it helps but with shipping it probably turns out worse than a therapist😅. I can relate to that closely too. I’m always walking around my house seeing dozens of unfinished projects that I started with pure intentions and bags of enthusiasm. They can’t all be finished though and it’s still worth the initial buzz of a new interest don’t you think? I guess that’s a downside of being optimistic. Thank you again, it genuinely was really emotionally uplifting to receive the package 🙏

good food for thought. digging the editing chop suey as well. keep on keepin on.
Thank you so much! I appreciate it 🙏
I like the idea of the helpers high. It’s like your body rewarding for being a good person 😊
Exactly! There’s no need to do it for any thought of a reciprocal favour. It just feels good 😁

Just found the channel. Thoroughly enjoying it! Needs a few more innuendos though… 😂
