Flow and Productivity

Listen Here

• Being in the flow is like water. Water still has boundaries. But it creates new paths when it encounters a limit.
• Art is free but you have to give it boundaries to stay true to the style you exhibit
• Today there are no rules in art today. There is too much freedom. You can lose yourself. It’s hard to define. 
• First you must be very motivated. Burning. Intrinsically motivated. This is hard for artists because no one tells you what to do.
• You need to have discipline.
• Exercise.
• Work. Sit and work. Get focused. Stick to your schedule.
• Go to see others’ works. See movies. Research.
• You see different approaches than yours. 
• Compare and contrast your work. Be critical about it.
• Works called Untitled are not fully communicated
• You need to be very connected to the present
• If you’re blocked, you can’t create. You need to be emotionally levitated so you can create. Be connected to the emotions, smells, stories of your time. Communicated it emotionally. You create emotions & feelings as an artist.
