Writers block is that the same as a creative block. While living in LA I was so concerned about tons of other crazy things in my life instead of my creative self. This is incredibly important not just because I have a blog to write but also because I have paintings to paint and pieces to design. I think that the reason that why I am feeling so blocked. I think with all of my design pieces are for school they seem like work.
Maybe if I started to think about it as fun then it is again. Then I don't feel obliged to do it, it feels better to get the creative juices going. Already living in San Francisco and working on design all the time makes me feel better, really good actually, except when I am not working on my work. When I am "relaxing" I feel like I am not being productive. I want to relax until I don't and then I don't feel motivated to get going again.
Currently my roommate is always working I feel or drawing, digitally that is, because she is in visual development. I feel like she is so productive all the time and her work definitely reflects it. At the same time she feels the same about me. She told me just last night that she felt like she always needs to work because I do.
I have tons a drive, sometimes a little too much because it can hurt the people that I love. But with that said I am also super lazy. I love netflix, as you already know. I also love to "dick around" and do nothing. I love doing nothing, just like the Italians, which is why they take such a long siesta. Maybe they are on to something, maybe if I took a siesta everyday I would be more productive during the times that I am not siestaing? Now thinking about it maybe the time that I veg out averages to the same amount of time that most Italians siesta. Maybe my vegging is a siesta. Huh, now I feel more productive and not so blocked.
