Here’s my list to complete by the end of May (I’m giving myself an extra week): Some of the list items are to finish creative projects I’ve been working on and some of them are things to challenge me to get outside of my normal way of thinking. Other things I’m hoping to gain from this is to figure out what I actually like to do and to spend less of my downtime consuming and more time creating. Honestly, things I don’t think are great get made and are either popular, make money or both, so who am I to say what’s good anymore? It’s just my job to make it. I just want to get them done and out there. So for the next five months, I don’t care if any of these things are actually good or even totally finished. Picasso supposedly said, “The chief enemy of creativity is good sense.” The best estimate is that Picasso created 50,000 pieces, so he knew a thing or two about getting stuff done. The biggest thing for me is to not care if something is good or not. My personality lends itself to having loads of ideas and no follow-through, it’s something that’s bugged me since I graduated and then I get this fortune cookie… So I started thinking about what I want to do and who I want to be before I turn 30. I had a list of things that were mostly fun that I wanted to do before I turned 30, and a friend pointed out (shamed me) that they were more-or-less things I could do in a day and that I should do things that challenge me. New Year’s Resolutions never really work for me, but I do want to change and improve my life before I turn 30 on May 23rd.
