017 Find Your Peace
Week 17 of 2024 I visited an art festival this weekend and purchased an almost magical piece from Hoover, AL artist, Donna Martin (she doesn’t do social media). She glues little pieces of items from forrest onto her canvas and then paints beautiful abstract scenery.
014 When I'm Not Motivated...
Week 14 of 2024 Consistency is the battery to my success. It works even when I am feeling least motivated. There are particular skills that I have that work regardless of how I feel. There are things that I do weekly that gives me a strong sense of satisfaction. Being outside in my yard is one. Cutting the grass, trimming the hedges, tending to my garden, and taking care of my many indoor and outdoor plants are things I’m consistent at.
013 It Was Hard Physical Labor
Week 13 of 2024 I laughed so much yesterday as I recalled working on the “rock pile” as a kid. Sharing stories with my dad and my uncle, I had forgotten about those days. My brothers and I learned work ethic very early on from them. It was the type of work made for grown men, but in the summers it paid so much more than fast food restaurants and mowing lawns. I didn’t know until years later that those men were masters of brick and stone masonry, a forgotten skill.
10 The Job is the Job
Week 10 of 2024: Scrolling TikTok a few weeks ago, I heard American Record Producer, Rick Ruben say, “the Job is the Job. And that’s OK.” It’s something that I have been trying to teach my son based on my experiences. As creatives, it’s very easy to feel like the job is draining you and you only want to do the things you are passionate about.
06 I Had a Moment Driving
Week 06 of 2024: I had a moment driving home last night during the Superbowl. While Kansas City Chiefs were struggling to capture a lead on the San Francisco 49ers, I was driving from Alabama through rain and storms. I looked around and noticed that I was surrounded by darkness.
