Your future, should be your choice.

Artists, the circumstance we live in today are the results of all our yesterday and the decisions we made, days, weeks, months, years ago.  

We are living the outcome of those decisions today.

We created our present circumstances, good and bad, by our past choices.

We are responsible for them and we can not fix the blame onto others, we need to fix the problem, because of the choices we made or didn't make.

Artists, we have both the ability and the personal responsibility to make better choices for our futures, starting today.

We cannot allow our past errors in judgement, that were repeated every day, to lead us down the wrong path again. We must begin by deciding what kind of future we would like, and then work hard to make that happen.

Working hard on my Art practice and then also working harder on changing me.

Read the necessary books.

Do the necessary seminars.

Make the personal changes that need to be made, less television, less rest, less spending, early rising to read and think about your art practice every morning before you start your day, we are now starting to design with purpose and build the life we want.

It is a choice.

Write out what you want to have achieved in you Art practice in five years from now.

Write out how you will accomplish this task.

What skills will you need?

What books will you need to be read?

Who will you need to get help from to accomplish this goal?

What obstacles do you think you will encounter?

How will you over come these obstacles?

What skills will you need and how will you gain them?

When we sit down and start to answer these questions we are beginning to take control of the direction of our future life and not leave it up to chance.

Your life, your future, should be your choice and not left up to chance.
