Something I'm excited to move toward is expectation-less creating. Prior to this month, it was space I found myself creating from. After a handful of challenging journaling sessions I feel like I'm moving closer to this place once again.
What Jamal said, and: I would like to move towards creating shamelessly without strings attached; to ditch the feeling that I have to pay my dues, to have all my ducks in a row, all the organizing and cleaning done, all the bills paid, all the grind in, before I can sit in the creative space. To not feel like I have to "earn" creativity. Because when I'm in that space, there's never enough I can do to feel worthy of it. Why can't I just feel worthy because I want to create?
Wonderful thought and question Ryn!

Ohh I love that! That's something I dance with too. It's so much harder to even want to create when it feels like it has to produce an outcome.

Thanks for sharing Janine! All of this is the reason why I write these! I hope you can create even just 1% more shamelessly today.
