PODCAST – This is my Weekly Love Your Creativity Newsletter Podcast to keep myself and you focused on creativity. Just click on the right facing arrow above to hear or go here on iTunes
This week “Smile, create and carry on”. It’s about persistence with a project. Believing there is a beauty hidden high behind the brambles, walls and painful thorns.
The story of the 9 year writing marathon of The Fantasticks, the world’s longest running musical, is of two writers who kept leaving it, coming back, then throwing most of the script away and just keeping a few songs such as” Try To Remember”. It was just a chance that a colleague took over a summer theatre 9 years after they started and suggested putting it on that they finally put the effort together to finally finish it for stage.

So what project have you started and then left? Maybe you have got a first draft, a half finished painting, a song that needs a better chorus and then recorded? We all have these part-finished projects so your task this week is to get the one that niggles you the most out and spend 13 minutes looking at what it will take to get it finished and out of the door. Once you have finished it and then focus on getting out there, be it on your Youtube channel, iTunes, sent off to a competition, a reading or a gallery then doors always open and weird synchronicities can start to happen. However if your painting or poem is hidden in the drawer then unlike Sleeping Beauty noone will be coming to find it and kiss it awake to really live.
Sorry re the metaphor but you get the point, noone is climbing through vines, dust and your ‘ideas’ file to find beauty or great art when there is so much stuff out there to looK at already. You have to be your own prince climbing up the walls, getting scratched in the process, sneezing at the dust
I suggest that you do a vision board on the specific unfinished project to get fired up about the possibilities, my first and second posts on using vision board’s are linked up.
I am just on the tail end of finishing a remix of my track Londontown. It is over a decade since I wrote it and this current remix reincarnation I love, but even with this remix we have gone through two other sets of lyrics til we have come back to the very first ones I wrote. You can hear a snippet as it’s the music for the podcast.
Also in this podcast, I encourage you to do an end of week think back on what has been done, produced, worked on, booked and paid for creatively.
Whether you are a full time painter or a 40 hours a week office administrator who sings on the side, this is to encourage you to keep creating and make the world a better place, one song, poem, play, short film, piece of art at a time.
The following is what we need to track each week as a look back in brief, full explanations are in the podcast.
How many CV’s and emails did you send out for creative work?
How many creative jobs did you actually do, whether 8 shows a week, a gallery opening or a song in a children hospice?
How many auditions and meetings for creative projects?
How many classes and workshops did you do?
How much practise done that week, how much each day?
How much money made through your creative pursuits?
What marketing of your creative output did you do and what revenue generation plans put in place?
Did you learn or see anything new or worth exploring creatively?
If it is zero then dont feel guilty, just look at the coming week and endeavour to do better. Each week track these statistics and review the same day every week. Your creativity and bank balance will thank you for it!
I also have written a mini tracking tune for you to sing along to while you track your weekly progress Time To Track by Marysia Trembecka
