Day 13 - Last Post

So... You see.. I decided that I really like blogging, which lead me to realizing, maybe I should do it for a living?

So, I started learning from other bloggers, and from what I found, oh my gosh!
I've been doing it all wrong.

First off, the writing.
I don't use any power-words. I use "so", "it" and "well" too often.
I also word-poop a lot.

Secondly, I talk about myself all the time. Heck, the whole blog is about me.
The reader is non-existent (sorry guys).

Last but not least, I tried to post every single day. Huge mistake! No wonder I ran out of material. To be honest, however, I did do the right thing by taking a step backward instead creating empty/useless posts just to meet my ridiculous quota.

So... (yes I used it again, hard habit to break), with this being said, this is my last post here.
I'll be starting a blog for illustrators / designers, and there I'll be focusing on methods that can help us  stay motivated and productive. It's an overwhelming task but I'll give it my best.

Again, sorry for not thinking about the readers (you) more. If you did somehow manage read any of my posts, thanks :-)

Day 11 - Because I Already Found Mojo

Rendering an apple - Another "comparing" exercise Last Saturday, I decided not to blog over the weekend in order to reflect about what I should be writing. That however escalated into a relapse where I started ignoring my new ways completely. I didn't paint or write until today. " The Nothing " had befallen me again, which is making me sad and anxious. I'm not really sure what happened, and I even went through the techniques I learned to figure out what I was doing and why. I did not like the answers. I'm just bored of it all. I doubt this has anything to do with depression, but I'm positive that it will be the case if this continues. I started this blog as a means to regain mojo, and I believe I found plenty— I learned a couple of life-hacks to free myself of "Nothing", I painted daily (and enjoyed it), and I was facing the demons that came along the way. So why did I relapse? Just boredom? Fear? One thing is certain, my blo...

Day 7 - Sleep Procrastination

More face-rendering practice Re-make of the "mist" day painting .. the one that made me want to study face-rendering. Thumbnail-story inspired by today's  random word — "Blank" I googled it— "Hate going to bed", and turns out it's not an abnormality after all. In fact, there are so many guilty-as-charged, studies  have been conducted. Brenda Savoie writes about this in her blog post: How To Break Your Bedtime Procrastination Habit I'm not surprised to see mentions of mismanagement of time, as well as the inability to sleep as side-effects of chronic bedtime procrastination. Brenda also lists some pointers that might help rid us of this habit. The one I relate to the most is getting into the habit of purging any excess feelings that might still be occupying our fragile minds (I know it's not just me). This includes any type of feeling— Anger, frustration, sadness, and even happiness! ...  if you manage to exp...
