The Artist's Way

I've been working through The Artist's Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity for the past couple of weeks.

I'm glad you're doing so well! I'm trying to take control of my life too. I feel like a failure in many ways.

I'm sorry. :( That's what I've been trying to work through. Have you ever tried the Artist's Way? I'll help you along if you want to do it with me. Whatever you try, I hope it's successful.

Do I have to buy a book to do that? It sounds cool. I've just been trying to do more like we've joined a gym and I've been getting more of my long term to do list done and doing more stuff on my own. The bad part is that I feel bad when I get something done like I still haven't done enough. The working out is helping a lot though!

Every little bit helps! If you have a to-do list, make sure you also keep a ta-da list. That's what I do. I'll keep a list on my fridge (or, more lately, on twitter) and list all the little baby steps I accomplish each day.

The Artist's Way is a book, but a lot of libraries carry it so you may not have to buy it. If your own thing is working for you though, that's great! It is a good one if you need active healing though.

I do keep a planner with everything that I do (including the housework!) I guess I can use this guilty feeling as a sign that I want to be doing more and let it go. That book sounds good though, I'll check the library!
