Ep 171 Am I a procrastinator, but don’t know it? Video Description
Here’s a quote—from one of my current new favorite podcasts, Creative Pep Talk (episode 294: https://www.creativepeptalk.com/episodes/294 ).
“You spend your life doing what you spend your days doing.”—Andy J. Pizza
We know about the bills, the boss, and the kids, but think about the fact that creating something of value is your passion, so are you making the time and taking the effort to do those things? The reason why we feel qualified to discuss this topic is that there have been times in our lives where we have asked ourselves these same questions.
4 Questions to Ask Your Yourself to find out if you’re procrastinating (for the D.I.Y. Rock Star):
1. What are you making time for? No matter what is going on in your life, you should be doing what you want your legacy to be. And what brings your life joy. We can’t say it enough, but PLANNING is a key component to making things happen—ESPECIALLY if you’re busy. We know that sounds counter-intuitive, but it’s true. Talk is cheap, but action speaks.
2. Are you a worthy participant of what you want to do? If you never produce a painting, are you a painter? Start producing the work that you want to see in the world.
3. Are you a part of your own solution? While we realize this is a bigger discussion, but be a part of solving your own problems, instead of constantly trying to solve others or complain about what you can’t do (or about what “they” won’t “let” you do.)
4. Are you constantly making excuses? What could be more important than your art? You can start anywhere, so get started. We have said that you can get started producing almost ANY art by using your cell phone and you can put it out into the world with your cell phone. Eight year olds have smart phones now, so what’s your excuse?
