At first its hard.

You can feel lost without a sense of structure.

But they say as you keep going and as you keep creating there will be trends that emerge.

Trends that will reveal the true nature of who you are and your style, passions, etc.

Because imagine that your creative work, like this one for me, is a data point.

Of course I’m not robotically like — [Mechanical Voice] “THIS IS CRE-ATIVE EX-PERI-MENT #626.” — Then proceed to type this out.

Nah.

This is a small act of creativity, of expression, that’s genuine and will accumulate over time if I am consistent with it. But knowing that it’s experimental takes of the pressure off, so when I hit publish I’m not sweating bullets hoping for this to get 1,000,000 views.

Could it lead to something bigger? …Maybe.

Am I pressed for it to? That’s what I am working on not being.

Pressed about the outcome.

This is a rep and a data point.

And if this is cringe that’s OK, I have to trust that the averages will balance out with the next thing that I make.
