Ideals can sometimes be pragmatic
Hopefully I'll get to fulfill this when I get my own place:
Have a proper craft room. I've come to realise I like creating and messing things up and I can't just stick to one thing, which is also why I can't focus and bring ea to another level. I mean I can but it'll take away the fun of doing it, then there really isn't much point is there? I don't want to be churning out things for the sake of churning it out. There's too much lifeless products out there, and mine joining one of theirs is really kinda stupid. I might as well throw out all these as junk. I'll have to admit making a sale really feels good, but it's not the money (unless it's a lot of sales), but the recognition that somebody likes what I'm doing. And I enjoy that ea is a vehicle to create more crafty stuff, coz I have to make packaging, come up with namecards, think of ways to sell, reach more people, etc. It's just like how I get very restless when I don't exercise in a really long time, there's this feeling of lots of pent up energy not going anywhere.
There's a whole lot of rationalising if I talk to you about this topic. My brother has been trying to convince me to bring ea to another level. There's a lot of buts holding me back, we'll see how it goes.
Anyway an interesting blog for you peeps to read:
