Sunday Reminder
Each Sunday I'll find an older post pertaining to the current week's theme, polish it up, and re-share it.
Here's today's "Sunday Reminder"
"That's Boring"
[October 23, 2019]
The enemy voice managed to get around my guard today. It said what every creative fears: “You’re boring.”
And I listened, which means, I entertained the nonsense by asking myself, Am I really boring? Will this project put people to sleep?
Boring is kryptonite to creatives.
And by “creatives" I don’t mean only artists or authors; I mean anyone that produces beauty, delivers on their convictions, and presses “send” with their integrity in tact. Really, I mean anyone that creates.
Here’s a sample of boring:
Flavorless potato soup.
The DMV waiting room with white tile floors.
Cream paint with beige trim.
Canned green beans.
Stucco buildings and strip malls.
You, my friend, are not boring!
