Bijna de laatste week van #TheArtistsWay

#taw #the100dayproject

there may be a lot of enshitification on the internet, but holy hell, it's amazing to be able to video chat with friends cruising in French Polynesia about #boatProjects and #theArtistsWay.

Dag 70 (geloof ik) van #the100dayproject en mijn The Artist’s Way traject.

#TheArtistsWay

Week 3 van The Artist’s Way is afgerond en week 4 begint.

Nog steeds blij dat ik het doe en nog steeds blij dat ik het begeleid en in een groepje doe. (en benieuwd naar de komende week)

#the100dayproject #TheArtistsWay #TAW

Ik heb geen mooie foto's om het te bewijzen zoals mensen die naaien, of tekenen of breien of fotograferen. Maar toch ben ik echt nog steeds bezig met #the100dayproject door The Artist's Way van Julia Cameron te doen.

Met onder elke ochtend m'n Morning Pages en elke week een Artist's Date. En het is geweldig, superblij dat ik begonnen ben (en precies op het juiste moment).

S6 E3: Should we Journal?

Welcome to The Book Dialogue

Thank you for listening in!

Welcome to another episode of The Book Dialogue! Today, we’re diving into a topic that has sparked much debate among creatives and thinkers alike: Should we journal?

Should We Journal?

Join us as we explore the transformative practice of journaling and its potential benefits for personal and creative growth. We’ll be referencing influential works, including Julia Cameron’s bestselling book, The Artist’s Way, which emphasizes the importance of nurturing one’s creative self through morning pages—an exercise that encourages free-flow writing to unlock inner thoughts.

We’ll also discuss Ryder Carroll’s The Bullet Journal Method, a system designed to help you organize your thoughts, tasks, and reflections in a way that promotes clarity and focus.

Whether you’re a seasoned journaling enthusiast or someone curious about starting, this episode will provide insights, tips, and inspiration to help you decide if journaling is the right practice for you.

So, grab your pens and notebooks and join us as we discuss the question: Should we journal?

@sandradejong Leuk Sandra. Ik ben benieuwd wat het jou gaat brengen. Ik heb het ook een geprobeerd, maar #TheArtistsWay is niet voor mij. Misschien aan de overvloed aan creativiteit die er al is in mijn leven. 😉 #elkedagietsnieuws

Nach dem Wahlabend gestern war mein Kopf beim Aufstehen ziemlich voll und das nicht nur mit schönen Gedanken.

Ich bin also zum ersten Mal seit langer Zeit dem Rat von #JuliaCameron, Autorin von "The Artist's Way" gefolgt und habe sogenannte "Morning Pages" geschrieben. Also drei Seiten lang alles, was mir durch den Kopf ging, ungefiltert aufs Papier gebracht. Manche sagen auch "Brain Dump" dazu.

Was soll ich sagen, es hat total gut getan! ☺️

Ik doe mee met het #the100dayproject
Nadat ik al jaren over het boek #TheArtistsWay heb gehoord (dubbele berichten: sommige mensen vinden het niks, anderen vinden het geweldig) - ga ik er nu 100 dagen mee aan de slag.

En ik heb er zin in.

(Sorry voor de crappy picture, na 12.000 stappen gisteren, vandaag te moe om een mooiere te maken op een plek met meer licht ;) )

My psychologist told me to make a visual list of things I need to do "recharge" b/c when my battery is @ 0, executive functioning has left the chat. And she said to make sure I include pictures. I made my best to include pictures that inspire a feeling™. And you know what? It works! I look at those pictures think, "what do I want to feel?" And that's how I had a short impromptu dance party, and it felt like an impromptu artist date.

I’m currently working through “The Artist’s Way” and I’ve got to the week where you have to not read anything - so you don’t have distractions filling your brain instead of creative ideas and I’m really struggling with it, especially because I listen to audio books when I am doing my embroidery. Anyone else done #TAW #TheArtistsWay ?

The week four of #TheArtistsWay is the one when it’s time to stop reading (meaning mostly stop consuming content online) I’m avoiding this. Im so used to the regular posting and chatting about painting and sketching I struggle to break this habit. In prep I started posting rarely, once or twice on some weeks - it’s been fine. In case I disappear for a week, know it’s just #TheArtistsWay_week4 messing with my brain 🧠

#mastoart Is anyone else on track with the book?

@allysseriordan

Cherry picking from this book is something I can relate to, as I've yet to finish reading it. It sat unused for years until some writers on here sparked my curiosity again. I wrote about how that helped in my last web blog post.

Basically, the process was a big help last year to get me writing again, so I will dive back in where I stopped last time.

What do you think about The Artist's Way?

The Artist's Way is a book/course that provides a framework for people to explore and expand their creativity. Many people swear by the 'Morning Pages' exercise.

This is a book I have an on-off thing with and may restart soon.

My friend @andyluke shared his thoughts in video form, starting with this introduction: https://youtu.be/_-rwPHYoKA8?si=DYDbR_SJo5EAxjz4

Currently on Week 4 of The Artist’s Way, and although I’m failing to give up soc.media and YouTube, I am starting to feel it working. Unexpected, deep desires have come bubbling to the surface and now I’m facing the terrifying challenge to actually act on them. I want to start a blues dancing class here, moving away from the London scene has hurt so much! But it would bring me back to life in the best way.

I had such a long and complex dream. Almost as if I was living a second life in another possibility or another dimension. Very OA. (I miss that show.) And I woke up totally refreshed. I journaled the dream. It took three pages to explain everything that happened. I dream a lot, but this one was very different in a way I can't completely explain.
