| Introduction | Following prompts in the book 365: A Daily Creativity Journal: Make Something Every Day and Change Your Life! by Noah Scalin, I have done a creative activity every day since January 1, 2016. Some days were really hard either creatively when I couldn’t figure out what to make, or mentally when the task was too daunting and I just wanted to skip a day. However, I took Noah’s advice from the beginning of the book “Sharing Your Work: It may be tempting to keep your daily project a secret, but having an audience can be an incredibly helpful and rewarding part of the experience…Accountability: It’s much harder to give up on a project when you feel like people actually care that you’re doing it.” While this advice wasn’t written specifically for me, I think it may be the best advice I’ve ever gotten. I am convinced that I would have given up a long time ago if I hadn’t shared my work. I shared my work on Snapchat, Facebook, and Instagram. It was the likes and comments on my posts that motivated me to keep going on the days that were really challenging. |
