Create Something Today- Even If It Sucks!

How hard is it to put ourselves out there and continually move forward as entrepreneurs and creators?!

 In this world of cold faced businesses, deadlines and unyielding educational frameworks, we do not seem to fit and that impacts our self-esteem massively.

These are just a couple of the thoughts I had as I worked on an article for a customer, thoughts which have given birth to this blog post.

I realized that the best response that the creators can mount is that they continue to CREATE!!

Hell, it is vital that you do not stop!

Can be just a little, doesn't have to be a lot, just don't stop!

 I realized that I have been guilty of stopping my creative outlets, ceasing to listen to the whispers of my creative soul; preferring to listen to the grating shouts of the business world.

How could that be so?

 How could I, an online blogger, content creator and one who espouses the location independent lifestyle no less, fall so in love with the cold, grey and faceless 9 to 5 drudgery?

Easier than you may think my friends.

 I stopped creating. I stopped listening to the creative outlet within me. As the old cliche states, it won't happen overnight but it will happen.

The outcome was inevitable.

Just like a skill unused becomes obsolete, so a passion untended becomes lost, a spark of joy and colour adrift across the grey skies of conformity.

Owner less.

Author less.

So today, and everyday, I urge you to create. Create something even if you think it's crap! Hone that skill, chase that dream.

Consider it a conversation starter with the passionate creative within you.

And then, just like any relationship, you need to KEEP TALKING everyday!

In the Dark of Night

 Fly high oh pretty one, Wings beat strong and deep. Close as possible to the sun The dream,alive, to keep. Yet somehow, always clouds, Wrapping around and smothering. The dream it always shrouds, Always just out of reach, fighting. As tho, no matter how strong the wings, Tomorrow is just as dark and broken. Look around, no joy the dawn brings, Yet this seems to remain, hushed, unspoken. Still we fight on, as tho the tides we can turn, Who do we think we are, gods, such fools! Dreams,in our wake, as ashes, burn, As slowly our desire for life, it cools. Death, whispers, and entices, Of such release, could we just land. And still we judge, falling to its vices, Slowly we clutch death, it's warm hand. For when all is black and grey, A painless tomorrow looks bright. Death, closes in, and hear it say, Come with me, it will be alright.
