Sometimes I suck and that’s ok, not so much at the moment…

What’s a good creative solution for when your mind is in a rut?  I don’t know.  I’ve found myself in this place over and over.  I’m sure you’ve taken notice.  Ideas come and go but nothing comes to fruition.  I find myself in a daze wandering through life aimlessly.  Attainable goals but unattainable ambition.  Where is my drive?  I take a stroll on a sunny but windy day to clear my head.  Nothing.  I flip through magazines, scour the internet reading blog post after blog post.  Some of my daily reads and some of those advice posts on what to do when you have a creative block or need topics for a post.  Nothing still.  I sift through old sketches to see past glories and remind myself of what I can do and where I can go.  It’s not enough.  I go through these highs and lows so often that maybe this is just my norm.  On a roll and then I slow down and come to a halt.  Sometimes a halt is good because going through life on high-speed will wear you out.  Everyone needs time for themselves, time to cherish life.  However I find I halt a little too often.  I don’t want this to be my norm anymore but I haven’t figured out yet how to change that.  Slow and steady wins the race? A race I don’t know how long I’m in, so shouldn’t I be sprinting ahead?

This is all I have to share with you today, that and a few quick sketches I managed in my angst:

Tomorrow I’ll try again.
