Let's Reset...
Hello!
.
I recently had a great conversation with
@rusty-jernigan that was a follow-up to our first attempt at recording a podcast where I confessed that the way I have been using my free time has really not been working for me.
What I've been doing recently in my free time is playing a lot of online chess on chess.com and not a whole lot of the other creative activities that I love. I've come to a crossroads where I am realizing I want to shift my focus and start building some discipline with content creation again.
Back in 2017, I used blogging on STEEM posting original poetry daily as a method of building a creative habit. It ended up being quite powerful and even equipped me to be able to coach others on how to be consistent and unstoppable when it comes to creating and sharing original work!
Hitting Reset

Long story short... I am declaring today, November 21st 2021 my "Reset Day!" This blog is a tangible manifestation of my intention to be creating and sharing on a daily basis.
I am not sure that I will publish a blog every day as I don't want to flood the blockchain... 😂
However, I plan to dedicate at least 30 minutes every day to working on a creative activity that leads to content existing in a shareable form.
I have several major projects that are top-of-mind at the moment:
Write poetry and prose to match with Deep Dream Generator images, of which I have a huge backlog — post them as blogs here on HIVE.
Record and edit podcasts with
Get back into creating "beat vidz" — abstract visualizer video companions to music tracks
Continue fiction world-building "Vek" with my friend
@ethanaphex
Eventually start live-streaming various things again.
.
I'm going to start small, work daily, and go from here.
It all begins from this blog that declares today my Creative Reset Day!
Thanks for reading and I hope you all are doing well :-)
