How to get Energized, Motivated, and into Studio Mode - Part 2 - (re-post)

TAKE A LOOK AT THE IMAGE ABOVE. WHAT DO YOU SEE? THIS SHOULD HOW YOU VIEW YOUR FUTURE, ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES WITH PLENTY OF ON AND OFF RAMPS AHEAD.

NOW WITH THAT IN MIND HERE ARE A FEW MORE TIPS TO GET YOU INTO YOUR CREATIVE MODE, TIPS TO GET YOU MOTIVATED AND INTO THE STUDIO TO WORK AND HAVE FUN.


1 - KEEP A NOTEPAD WITHIN REACH, THIS WILL LET YOU CATCH THOSE IDEAS AS THEY FLY BY WITHOUT DISTRACTING YOU FROM YOUR WORK.


2- KEEP YOUR WORK SPACE CLEAN AND READY TO GO. DEPENDING ON WHERE YOU WORK IT IS BEST TO HAVE A SPECIAL PLACE TO GO AND WORK. IF YOU CAN SET IT UP FOR THE NEXT TIME YOU WORK THAT WAY ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS GET IN AND GO. ALSO KEEP IF YOU HAVE A LOT OF CLEAN OR PREP TO DO THIS WILL DISCOURAGE YOU FROM STARTING OR CUT INTO THE TIME YOU HAVE AVAILABLE. THINK IF YOU HAD A TABLE WITH ALL YOUR TOOLS LINED UP AND HOW INVITING IT WOULD BE.


3 - GETTING STARTED IS ALWAYS THE BIGGEST ROAD BLOCK TO MOVE AND PUSH THROUGH. KEEP THIS IN MIND AND JUST GET STARTED. ANOTHER TIP FOR THIS IS TO GET THE PROJECT STARTED THE DAY OR NIGHT BEFORE. INSTEAD OF CREATING A FINISHING POINT BEFORE YOU QUIT FOR THE NIGHT FOCUS ON CREATING A STARTING POINT FOR NEXT STUDIO DAY. THIS WAY YOU CAN GO INTO YOUR WORK SPACE WITH A PROJECT ALREADY STARTED. THIS WILL HELP TO MOTIVATE AND EXCITE YOU.

4 - PUT UP FENCES AROUND YOUR STUDIO TIME. I HAVE MY WORK SPACE IN MY ROOM BUT I STILL LOOK AT THIS TIME AS I AM GOING TO THE STUDIO FOR SOME WORK. WHEN I AM THERE I DON'T WANT ANY DISTRACTIONS. THIS IS MY CREATIVE TIME. ONCE YOU CARVE A SPECIAL TIME FOR YOURSELF THAT IS WHEN OTHERS WILL TRY TO STEAL IT FROM YOU. PUT UP FENCES, TURN OFF NOTIFICATIONS, SOCIAL MEDIA DISTRACTIONS, AND DRIFT INTO YOUR OWN LITTLE WORLD.

5 - I KNOW THIS ONE WILL BE HARD BUT LEARN TO SAY NO. SOMETIMES YOU NEED TO RESPECT YOUR TIME AND TEACH OTHERS TO RESPECT IT AS WELL. OBVIOUSLY CERTAIN UNEXPECTED THINGS WILL OCCUR BUT EVERYONE KNOWS THOSE LAST MINUTE LITTLE I'M BORED OR PLANS CANCELED CALLS ARE NOT MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOUR PASSION.

TAKE VALUE IN YOURSELF AND YOUR TIME.
