Inked calendar

Sometimes, it takes a little ink on the calendar to get us properly motivated.

When we know there’s an upcoming exhibition, we finish the sculpture. When we’re anticipating overnight guests, we tidy the house. When we’re on the schedule to perform, we fully prepare the pieces.

If you find yourself lacking motivation, schedule an event. Let its existence on the calendar be a friendly push in the right direction.

In other words, if the motivation isn’t coming internally, invite it to manifest itself through a bit of external pressure.
