getting back in to my art practice / a 2025 goal to sell one piece of art PART 2

It absolutely is overwhelm, that’s it. I didn’t realise or could see it. It is now 1 March and yep it is overwhelm, over this space and my actual goal. I feel I am going to shift and change my goal to a more smaller step; simply to create. To get back in to creating, art, drawing, anything and get my creative juices flowing again. And work from there, let that be a starting point.

In February I borrowed a paper shredder, it took me 2 weeks to open it and actually make a start, then once I did, it felt good. Bank statements from as far back as 2010 now gone and that little corner is getting more sorted. I wouldn’t say it is a hoarding problem, it is just a lot of things for different activities and purposes in one small-ish space. I am making this shift change and progress feels small yet do-able.
I do have these thoughts of all these things I want to do and thinking about it is exciting and, yeah overwhelming because my environment isn’t conducive to creating.

Working on and through and with the overwhelm is where I need to be heading, I am unsure how.

Thanks coaches

I love the reframing of the goal – we’re all about big goals, and perhaps just creating is the first rock to help you get closer to the bigger goal of clearing the art space. You can create from wherever you choose. How was it to use the paper shredder? What’s the next thing you can approach, open, move, or remove?
