In the midst of all the promo posts, here’s a real one!
One of the things I find really interesting about following The Artist’s Way program – because it happens a lot – how often I end up anticipating the next exercise of the book. That’s before I read it. Last week, for example, I started on a big clean-up. I started in my office, but kept on going (and I still am going). I usually have a big clean of my office after finishing a book – it starts with the filing and continues from there – and often work through the house in the fall. Something about that snap in the air in September makes me want to get organized. This time, I also started to make a list of things that were almost but not quite done. I’m tired of them being around and started to finish them, in succession.
I opened the chapter for week #7 and guess what it’s about? Making room for new things and new luck and new opportunities in your life. And how do you do this? By cleaning up, by organizing and filing, and by finishing what you’ve started. I’d been at it for four days before reading that!
And now that I have a head start on the exercise, do you think I’ll get extra-bonus new things, luck and opportunities? I hope so! There’s lots of room for them in here now and more space to come.
Are you following TAW with me this time? Doing your morning pages and your artist date? How is it working for you this time?
