Now that we are done with all the crazy partying from last Friday.....I see we are right back to business :)......I used to be a quote junkie. I would collect all kinds of quotes. I would hang them up in my former studio like they were carvings on a tablet sent from the heavens above. Eagerly look to them for the divine inspiration that was going to change my life. But then I kind of got sick of quotes and became anti-quote artist. I eschewed all quotes and what they stood for. After much reflection, I realized that by merely reading the quote, my life was not going to transform suddenly and miraculously. But, it was the action with which I took behind the quote that was going to make a difference. I still can't stand to read the super popular ones....like, "Dance like you never danced....blah blah blah" Once you see them everywhere, the quote seems to deflate like a balloon. Nowadays, I tend to gravitate toward the obscure quotes or even unintentional quotes like this......
It was originally intended for weight loss in an article of oprah. However, I took it to mean life and goals in general. It really has made a big difference for me in my pursuit to reconnect with my art. And I put it on the cover of my inspiration journal. It's the perfect quote for immediate gratification, perfectionists who tend to procrastinate........like myself.
Here are some more great quotes from Studio Friday
