As most of you can imagine, being a top athlete takes a lot of work and a lot of time. You have to stay in shape, both mentally and physically, eat right and sleep tight (haha!).
We artist have it much the same way. We must eat healthy and get a sufficient amount of sleep. But we also have to stay in shape. But instead of running and training with weights, we train our minds through a constant workflow to maintain, and develop, speed and skill. If we neglect this it can, and will, lead to a bunch of bad stuff.
We may lose faith in ourself and think we're not good enough.
Believing that we one day will make it basically is all we have as artists at the end of the day. Its the engine that keeps us going when things get hard. Its like that carrot we never can quite seem to catch, even though we move forward one step at the time.
So; to sum things up: Work hard, try to keep a constant pace at what your doing and believe in yourself when the going gets tough. It probably will.
Finally - what I like to do to keep myself in shape is to do these little sketches. They are quite easy to do, doesn't take up a lot of my time, and are quite valuable in many ways ( I will get back to that in a later post).
Have a great day, folks.
Talk with you soon.
