When we open ourselves to exploring our creativity, we open ourselves to God: good, orderly direction.

So much of an artist's career hinges on the sense that we are going somewhere, that we are not just trapped by the four walls of wherever we are. For creative sanity, I must believe that if I just do the next right thing, a path will unfold for me.

Treating myself like a precious object will make me strong.

Once we are willing to accept that anything worth doing might even be worth doing badly, our options widen.

Choice by choice, moment by moment, I build the necklace of my day, stringing together the choices that form artful living.

Some people find it easier to picture the stream of inspiration as being like radio waves of all sorts being broadcast at all times. With practice, we learn to hear the desired frequency on request. We tune in to the frequency we want.

We always do the best we can by the light we have to see by.
