27 April 2022 | From the friendly caves of Pixie Hollow.
Julia Cameron, in her phenomenal work The Artist's Way, writes about creative u-turns.
They are those projects that you are enthused by, get great reception for, and then just... drop.
It happens to filmmakers, visual artists, writers, creators of all kinds. It also happens in business.
The u-turn happens because you've got a limitation about it. Somewhere. Somehow.
That editor that said they'd happily take your content? You never get it there on time.
That publisher that said they'd happily read your book? You somehow don't finish it.
That incredible video production you got a fabulous reception about when you posted it on LinkedIn? Somehow it got too expensive, or too hard, or you didn't get holidays.
That podcast you had lined up? Ah well your schedule got in the way.
U-turns. Every. Single. One.
The good news is that you can rescue them.
Recognise that they are u-turns. Acknowledge that you did this to yourself and that it's nobody else's fault.
Then dig out one and resurrect it. All you have to do is take the next tiniest step.
What's stopping you?
