Monday Musings – Do Not Wait
I came across this quote recently and thought it was a great way to start the week. Happy Monday!
“Do not assume that you have to have some prescribed conditions to do your best work. Do not wait. Do not wait for enough time or money to accomplish what you think you have in mind. Do not wait for what you assume is the appropriate, stress-free environment. Do not wait for maturity or insight or wisdom. Do not wait until you are sure you know what you are doing. Do not wait until you have enough technique. What you do now will determine the quality and scope of your future endeavors.” – Anne Bogart
This sentiment from director Anne Bogart is really another way to say “seize the day,” but specifically for creators and people who want to live a creative life. And since you’re here, I know that’s you too!
Sometimes all it takes is a push to help you get started. Get started on that novel brewing in your heart, get started documenting your life’s specific little joys, get started. There’s no need to wait for the perfect conditions because they never truly appear.
If you’re looking for more inspiration, peruse my bookshelf for a few of the books that have helped shape my world view. And while I’ve got you, I invite you to swipe through my picks for books to help you on your creative journey.
Cheers to creating something right now, today!
