This week I’m following my own advice about creativity,

and giving myself space to rest and recharge.

I’m resharing an episode of Mind Witchery

about the ways our overnight-success-obsessed culture

keeps us from seeing the truth of - and finding comfort in - the cycles of creation.

I love a good metaphor, so this episode uses an agricultural analogy

to rethink progress as cyclical rather than linear,

slow and co-creative rather than fast,

and dominating, and sustainable rather than explosive.

Make Magic:

Use this metaphor to get new perspective on

where you find yourself right now, re: progress.

If your endeavor were a field, which stage is it in?

For what developments do you need to give yourself credit?
