"There are times when I can't work, can't do anything. I can't concentrate, I get scattered, feel I'm dying . . . ."English Artist
1933 -
Being a creative leader is very challenging and many times we work against ourselves. Our minds find excuses why we can't work. What we don't realize is that this down time is actually good for us because it helps us create. We need the down time even if we feel guilty about it. For a five year period after I was diagnosed with prostate cancer, I was very productive, often writing two poems a day or more. The last two years I have seen my productivity dwindle. There are days now where I don't write a single poem, but that is okay because my mind and heart need to replenish themselves. Sure, sometimes I feel guilty, but I know one day I will return to work. I have had years where I have written 700 - 800 poems and other years where I write 40 - 50. Am I being lazy? No, I am recharging my creative batteries.
