Hat tip to @hey.karyn for the idea that inspired this cartoon—perhaps my first ever! I had fun with this. 😊

Tell me, do you relate? Which flavor of procrastination are YOU today? Or most frequently? I can tell you I mostly avoid Pinterest like the plague because it is so dangerous for me! And ever since I moved my Creative Sandbox Community OFF of Facebook, I’ve spent a lot less time there, though I still belong to a ton of Groups, so I check in every so often—just not multiple times a day like it used to be when my Community was there!

Now my go-to procrastination-of-choice is Instagram, for sure. And email. 🖍
But much of my non-Deep-Work time goes to individual communities I belong to—my own Creative Sandbox Community, hosted on @mightynetworks, along with a few others, like @CoCommercial and @loublaser’s community, AndThriving.net. 🖍
So it’s not that I’m spending less time on social media, it’s just that it’s *smaller*, private social media, rather than Big Brand (Big Brother?) social media. The spaces are quieter—less “noisy”, no ads, no political BS—and the conversations are deep and meaningful, focused around specific topics I’m interested in.

It’s deeply satisfying!

So really, those social networks don’t even qualify as procrastination. They are part of what sustains me.

158: What Are Your One-Pound Weights?

In January I finally realized that my painful, stiff right shoulder was not getting better, even with all the massage, all the stretching…
I just finally woke up and realized that it had been months, and my shoulder was not getting better.
So I made an appointment with my doctor, who prescribed physical therapy. And for the first several weeks, all I did was a few stretching exercises. Three different moving stretches — “motion is lotion” is the mantra that my physical therapist, Cindy, said as she showed me how to move my arm to stretch my ridiculous stiff shoulder joint, after she worked her manipulation magic.
And I was dedicated. I did my stretching homework daily.
But when [Read more…]

Day 24 of the April Fooling with Faces and Forms creative challenge inside the Creative Sandbox Community: bored. Playing with different bored faces. 🖍
Whenever I feel frustrated with my efforts, I remind myself that when graphic facilitating, slapping a label on a drawing solves just about all problems. I’m not aiming for Art here, but communication of ideas.
What a relief that is! 😊
