I set a goal for myself of ONE task per chapter. There's no way I'll do them all, and if I approach them knowing that, I won't do ANY. So I have told myself I can handle ONE. Now I have to choose one to do! Not so easy. I've finished reading chapter 2, but am stuck at the tasks at the moment.<br /><br />Stick with us - you're doing fine!<br /><br />CamillaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2694732939835029567.post-13891251125480162012011-07-21T23:18:49.352-04:002011-07-21T23:18:49.352-04:00One thing about taking time to do this book, is th...One thing about taking time to do this book, is that we can take our time! We can do what we want when we want.

But they are a great way to get this negative, icky stuff out of our heads. And yeah, they come in very handy for jotting down the interesting dreams we had last night, if done in the morning. And I know how hard it is to come home from work and feel too drained to think about being on the computer. Personally, I've been just crashing on the couch alot this week upon getting home. But I commend you for doing every little thing you can and sticking to this, and I applaud your breathroughs! And I so wanted give you a hug when you said you cried thinking on your biggest critics. Aso in regard to those nasty blurts. I know, I know. I do hear ya. My inner critics been p-r-e-t-t-y darn nasty, as well. But give yourself a big 'ol pat on the back and keep on moving forward with this because you're KICKING CRITIC ASS!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2694732939835029567.post-29779047697832182112011-07-21T18:54:36.648-04:002011-07-21T18:54:36.648-04:00Yay for you on showing up. :) We´ll cheer for you ...Yay for you on showing up. :) We´ll cheer for you and work on keeping your censor at bay. :) <br />The handwriting seems to really connect us with the project.Paula - Buenos Aireshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12601159166382653183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2694732939835029567.post-84433315627225579602011-07-21T18:46:41.179-04:002011-07-21T18:46:41.179-04:00I think you are doing great.

I have heard of many people going through this book several times and getting different things for the book each time. <br />Thank you for saying something positive about my watercolor. It takes guts putting it up there but I have noticed that the people who post their work seem to get better and better as time goes on. So although I don't paint alot, I am going to paint and post more often. I think your idea of playing and doodling as an artist's date is great. Have fun with whatever you do!Ginnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06302331997346895851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2694732939835029567.post-75183980995443209042011-07-21T16:45:55.942-04:002011-07-21T16:45:55.942-04:00Hey, don't be so hard on yourself.

It's hard not to listen to our nasty inner critics, but keep working on it. Oh, and I found it really hard to get started before I took ownership of the process. Don't know if that makes sense, but I just shifted my thinking from this being imposed from the outside (the thought of which made me drag my feet) to it coming from the inside. Me doing it for myself. I've been in tears, too, but catharsis is a good thing.Anne Buterahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04090778223286237879noreply@blogger.com
