Lately I’ve felt the urge to write and work on a creative project but this urge is sporadic and usually NOT what my compulsive completer thinks SHOULD be worked on. So this conflict result in nothing getting written. Hell, I barely BLOG anymore!
So it occurred to me that maybe I should just roll with my Muse and stop trying to control my talent. Write whatever I’ve been thinking about that day. Write ON whatever my Muse has been nudging me about. And stop procrastinating on ALL my talent just because I’m a OCD about finishing things.
Because I know that only by writing will my Muse keep talking to me. Although she does fill my nights with amazing dream characters and plots and worlds and stories. And she’s always done that for as long as I could remember. So I doubt my Muse will ever abandon me completely.
But I’ve got to get motivated to pursue the creative end of my Muse or she’ll just be personal entertainment and never shared. And like my little horoscope says, its time to put up or shut up.
Besides, I keep telling my sons to get some “drive” into their life. Perhaps they’ll absorb it better if I example it for them.
Ya think!?!
