I've never been one for New Year's resolutions. Well I can't say "never" because in my younger days I wanted to be on that band wagon but as I aged, I realized there wasn't much to it. It was simply a fun thing to do around the last day of the year and it amounts to not much more than a to-do list for the first couple of weeks of January. I find it amusing also how the so called pundits have a statistical day (January 15th) when most people give up on their New Year's resolutions.
For all of my adult life I've not been a smashing success at fulfilling my yearly objectives. Why do I keep trying? Needless to say the alternative to trying is very grim, is it not? Over the past couple of years things have changed a great deal and these shifts I speak of are mainly regarding my professional career which this blog is limited to addressing.
I'm on a journey and for the readers of this blog, I welcome you to join me in it's progress, if any.
When I wrote Shut Up & Draw, I wrote in the introduction how Tracy hinted that if I didn't do something profitable with my drawing talents to earn income, she made a thinly veiled threat to have a nice weeny roast for the grandkids using all my drawing implements as fuel for the fire.
I took this threat seriously enough and wrote the a book albeit with modest sales.
As the impetus from the energy of Shut Up & Draw has waned, she is revisiting her earlier threat. Therefore, in the spirit of marital harmony and overall good business, (that is earning a living) I renew my pledge to succeed.
Join me, if you will
