Creativity is a Process.

And this project even though only days old is teaching me that! I’m normally the organised, methodical at times, committed (still committed but in a different way – I’ll explain later) type of person but I’ve realised that having a plan with some flexibility is key to allowing our creativity to flow better.

My recent trip to Australia also taught me about the journey and how the journey is the goal. I’ve known this for a long time, but to again experience this for three weeks and to constantly be questioning my own path while on this journey – was confirmation for me that I need to value the creative process more.

Really value it. 

And this challenges me because I’m a perfectionist. But everything that I post has to be some kind of finished something. And if it’s half finished or a “process” image of something half finished, it takes a while for me to want to put it out there.

Posting these images instead of my nature images is challenging! Because my nature images are what connects with people. And I’m not sure if these images will connect, but I told myself I wanted to do something challenging, and here it is. And of course the image is a gathering of more tools, more conversations and more thoughts that I am processing in this moment.
