What do you do when real life interrupts your artistic process? ๐Ÿš


This post loosely accompanies Gab & Jam, 241. What do you do when real life interrupts your artistic process?

As a D.I.Y. Rock Star, you have to NOT ONLY grow/maintain your artistic exploration, outreach, and dialing in the vision, but also you are living real life in the meantime. This means that you are likely holding down a day job, may have some kids and a spouse, and need to balance it all as best you can. THATโ€™S where this episode comes in. Lean on these ideas when โ€œreal lifeโ€ strikes and takes you away from your creative life.





This topic piggybacks on episode 235. How NOT to let the news discourage you (for the D.I.Y. Rock Star) (video: https://bit.ly/235healthymindsetvid and podcast: https://bit.ly/235healthymindsetpod ), but this one specifically asks what to do when you cannot just fa la la into your studio whenever you want to create your art? Sure, youโ€™ve blocked your time and made an appointment with yourself and closed the door, but then a child is sick and you have to tend to them? Or a spouse is in a bicycle accident (as was the case in the podcast episode that I was inspired by), then what?
