How do we know what’s next?
Just like life, a creative project isn’t a single mountain to climb — it’s an entire mountain range. And once we reach one summit, it’s time to start thinking about the next. But what is it?
If we’re going off of a prescribed plan or course, then our next step is usually laid out for us. It just takes an intentional decision to move on to it.
But if you’re forging your own path, it can be hard to see your next step, even if it you feel like “should” be obvious. It’s often not.
And sometimes, we’re working so hard on our current task that we don’t pause to think what lies beyond it.
For me, identifying my next step is a creative process in and of itself. It often only comes to me after some serious time spent journaling, meditating, or (most often) talking things out over coffee with a friend.
What about you? How do you identify YOUR next step?
(Don’t worry, this picture was taken pre-pandemic!)
Words & warmth,
