Or Motivational Mondays if you prefer 🙂
and yes I know today is Wednesday, I’m going with Whatever Wednesday 🙂
Enthusiasm breeds enthusiasm, excitement etc. and people that write their goals down are significantly more likely to do them.
We have TMI Tuesdays and Follow Fridays, so how about a day where we share what we are working on and comment on the progress?
(I’m just kidding about the days btw – any day is good, I just like the alliteration).
I recently read back my old posts where I rambled quite enthusiastically (and often) about what I was working on. I miss that. It occurred to me that if I miss general positivity, that a good place to start is to express it myself.
We all struggle. Writing is hard, drawing is hard – creating in general is bloody hard. Merlin knows I mostly talk about what I’m finding difficult but today I want to flip the script. I know I sound like a bumper sticker but it is easier to tackle the hard stuff with a positive frame of mind. If we are bubbling with love for our project then the struggles aren’t so overwhelming maybe?
I’ve never been a trendsetter but I am just going to throw out an open invitation to the world. Find something you love about your WIP, ramble and express with gleeful excitement the cool thing – tell us all about it – share your excitement and joy. If you don’t feel it then I’m going to employ another cliche called ‘fake it until you make it’. In my opinion we echo our environment, like I said enthusiasm breeds enthusiasm. Join the hype train and the hype becomes real?
Am I making sense? Is this helping? I do not know.
All I know is that this is what I’m going to be attempting from now. I’m sure I will still grumble and groan on occasion but I’m going to make a concerted effort to spread the love.
I love this idea! Rambling often helps me and even if it doesn’t, it’s good to know there are others who understand. Looking for ways to encourage and help each other be better artists and writers sounds great!
That’s a cool-ass idea! I’m on board with anything that let’s me interact with fandom friends more during the week!
Me too! That’s the idea, a positive supportive fun friend thing heh 🙂
I’m going to try and stalk people’s pages so I don’t miss if anyone does this as I want to *wave pom-poms* and be super pumped for everyone. Creating is hard and can be quite isolating so you know whole lotta love
