day 03

Good morning, friends!
Welcome to day three. If you are having a hard time getting started this month, why not look at your list and decide on just one single thing you’d like to or need to do today. The rest can be icing on the cake. That one single thing redeemed me yesterday after a distracted first day.

Yesterday: In her webinar, Corrina Peipon challenged the idea of needing gallery representation and suggested several other models for success as an artist, and asked us what our idea of “success” is. Check out her website and this blog post about the topic.

Today: No list, but two talks. Jenny Odell: Technologies of Seeing BAMPFA  and Amy Sillman: Artist Talk Cooper Union.

Time tracking, I am just using a notebook and tracking how I use each 15 minute chunk through the work day. If I have to write it down, I am less likely to scroll through instagram for 15 minutes! Low tech, yes, but at the end of the week I will be able to see where I am wasting time, when I feel the most energetic, etc. I use TickTick for my “to do” list. It has a pomodoro timer feature that you can set to get yourself to focus for set periods of time with breaks. Some people like Toggl. Someone recommended this article today. 

Sending good thoughts. Don’t over think it today. Just do! LW
