Welcome to: Sacred Time: Part 1/5 , this day one of a 5 day project where we explore our relationship to time and aim to set apart 10 minutes of quality time each day for a drawing habit.
This project is the first the first of 3 projects of “Start a daily drawing habit: a Gameplan”, go here for the full table of contents.
Hey there, how are you doing?
No, how are you doing really? Grab a cup of tea or coffee maybe even a snack, stand up and stretch or do a couple of jumping jacks… done? We ready to do an assignment?
Did you really do the jumping jacks?
okay, lets go!
Over the next 5 days we’re going to work at identifying, setting aside, enlivening, inhabiting and defending our sacred time.
Let’s begin with what I’d like to call high voltage time.
To quote Scott Adams:
“The energy I have for a task is more important than the time I allocate to it”
You’ve felt this, it’s as true about a hard conversation you need to have with a friend, a problem at work, a movie you’ve been wanting to watch, or even playtime with a kid. if you don’t have the right energy for a task it could end in disaster.
My teacher Lilla Rogers says “an hour in the morning is worth two in the afternoon”. And while this is not always true for everyone. There are a number of factors that make those early morning hours the most high voltage. As in you have a lot of energy to give to whatever task you have.
