2-Minute Tuesday – #06 Limitations: Friend or Foe?
Limitations: Friend or Foe? |
Hello Reader, and Happy New Year! This week's 2-Minute Tuesday deals with limitations. We can look at them as an opposing force, but maybe we have that wrong. Please subscribe to my Youtube and share this email or the video with a friend who you think is a creative genius in need of some encouragement and challenge! How to find your next creative stepAre you wondering how to figure out your next step? The creative process teaches us how to judge what phase we are in and then troubleshoot our weak spots within it. That can save a lot of headache, time and disappointment. Sometimes we are simply in the nebulous preparation where it seems like progress is backwards. Other times we are in the concrete construction. It feels like things are moving, finally. But, how do we know whether we are stuck or at a place or rest? Here's a bit about that. (3 min.) As always, it is a treat to hear from you and continue the conversation! Thank you for your support. Let me know how I can help you in your creative endeavors. Keep Creating! Rich Kirkpatrick |
