I often feel like the most inconsistent person I know. I blame my undiagnosed ADD.
ADD is and can be an asset when you want to be inspired or creative since it allows your brain to bypass normal routes of travel and skip between two unlike ideas or associations. However, when it comes to consistent behavior "the struggle is real".
Currently my lack of consistency is preventing me from making time to work on any art. Such are the prioritizing dilemmas of the teaching artist. I think it is time to enforce some discipline on my daily or weekly routine and commit 1 block or one day a week to creative endeavors. Clearly I know how to enforce discipline, it's just so easy to give myself a valid excuse...we shall see how it goes.
