    It’s important to enjoy what you’re doing.

    I totally agree. I loved drawing and designing before I went to school. Now I don’t. I’m much, much better at it than I was, but I’m also apathetic about it. I think that being happy with what you’re doing, and getting joy out of the process, is more important than any kind of technical prowess.

      I was also in a position where I burnt out and didn’t want to create anything for about a year. I’ve been starting back up again slow- first with gardening, now with paints, music and punch needling.

        All good things. It def. feels better to be doing something creative and generative than just, I dunno, watching Netflix mindlessly. IMO :)
