Historically, I was someone who jumped into all sorts of art-making-productivity challenges. Now I cringe at the word "challenge." It feels so external. I've been trying to pay more attention to my inner landscape instead of robotically following someone else's plan - it's hard! Ultimately, though, I think it's more sustainable. Thanks for this post!
Yeah it's definitely tough, mostly because the world conspires to make it that way. If you haven't picked it up I highly recommend Jenny O'Dell's How to Do Nothing, which was really influential to me in terms of becoming better attuned to my own motivations and rhythms.
