Bring a comfy lawn chair...popcorn and something to drink...and we will play the movie "Surviving Picasso" and then have a discussion about "creative ego"!
I do not think there is anything more powerful or spiritually uplifting than like minds having a wonderful thought-provoking conversation! And so it was, tucked among some of the bravest, creative people I know. Two hours flew by, and we probably could have gone another 2 hours without blinking an eye! It was a great evening…I am so lucky to have so many wonderfully talented people in my life…There is nothing more magic than a group of intelligent people that read the same information, can add their own opinions and “spit” an idea or a concept back out into the group in the form of marvelous conversation. How lucky I am to have such amazing creative friends! Thank you for such an inspiring evening! (from the Blog https://cheryljonesevans.blogspot.com/2017/11/thought-provoking-conversations.html)
And it begins! One of the most important things I have learned about my art and my life was how to set goals. Some I have reached, others....not so much! Early 2013, along with several other amazing creatives, we read and discussed "The Desire Map" by Danielle LaPorte and it flipped my idea of creative goals, day to day life, happiness, and success upside down!
I would love to begin Second Sundays with "The Desire Map" an extremely beneficial tool for experiencing and enjoying unbridled creativity and life! It is so different than any art/life strategy I had ever heard of and has become a magnificent and significant part of my life every single day. I hope it will do the same for you! Let's talk about it!
These are my core desire feelings that I identified several years ago, and I have to say they have served me very very well. Every decision I make, every day is based on satisfying one or all of the 4 words that describe how I want to feel. But I am going to re-read and re-examine where I am now. Maybe they have stayed the same or maybe they have changed. I am looking forward to looking at them again!
