Previously, I wrote about the Rick Rubin book on creativity (see: 2024 03 27).

Today, a quote from the book popped into my feeds and I thought it was worth posting as a reminder to myself the sole reason I put time into this here blog.

โ€œLiving life as an artist is a practice. You are either engaging in the practice Or youโ€™re not.

It makes no sense to say youโ€™re no good at it. Itโ€™s like saying, โ€œIโ€™m not good at being a monk.โ€ You are either living as a monk or youโ€™re not.

We tend to think of the artistโ€™s work as the output. The real work of the artist is a way of being in the world.โ€
