Creativity Uplift

I’m thinking about starting a YouTube channel so I started watching YouTube videos for worked, and what didn’t. I noticed how they hook you with a topic and then drone on and on about sidetracks always teasing that they’re going to tell you the thing you want to hear but are taking forever to get to it. It was driving me crazy. And then I learned you need 4,000 hours of approved watch time to qualify for monetization. (And that a lot of legit viewing apparently is not counted by the algorithm if it comes in a big spike that be from bots or ads on other platforms…even if it isn’t you are SOL). I do want to make longer videos but I don’t wanna make a 20 minute video with only five minutes of content so… I’m not sure what I’m gonna do. #You#YouTubeu#YouTubeMonetizationn#monetizationrt#Artisticintegrityt#Artistst#ArtistLifert#ArtistMonetizationn#monetizationyoutubet#Artistt#ArtistDilemmast#ArtistIncomeStreaml#SellingOuteativeProcess

There are some natural rough spots in any endeavor, almost like it’s a law of nature and follows more or less the pattern of the musical scale. Do re mi fa so la ti do. Starting, sounding the “do,” everybody knows is hard. But what a lot of people don’t know is once you get started you feel good and everything going swimmingly for a while. And then, suddenly it all feels like it’s not working. You think maybe it’s a bad idea or you’re not doing it right. But it’s simply that you’ve hit the halftone between mi and fa. The half steps require a shift. It’s the shift that’s hard. We want smooth sailing rather than having to expend energy to tack into the process. So you have to put in a little extra effort to keep the process moving. And then things go forward swimmingly again until near the end when there’s that last little bit of effort that may sometimes feel like too much. But you need to finish, you need to hit the tonic. You need to sound the “do” again. #CreativeProcess #Resistance #WritingProcess #OvercomingResistance #workingthruit #Creator #Writer #Artist #artistofticktok #CreatorsOfTikTok #ImposterComplex #GettingItDone #Finishing #ArtistLife #ArtistLifeHacks #creatorlife #creativitytips #musicforlife #metaphors #metaphor #metaphysics #esoteric

Humans only perceive a minuscule fraction of the activity of the universe. And as a writer of fantasy and science-fiction, I feel, I have responsibility to expand the awareness and of the everything out there as I tell my stories. #fantasy #fantasywriter #fantasywriting #writing #writingcharacters #nature #plantslover #plantsmakepeoplehappy #naturewonder #plantcommunication #organicwonders #authortalk #authortok #fyp #didyouknow #didyouknowthis #worldbuilding #amwriting #thinkingabout #writer #author #authorsoftiktok #writersofinstagram #fantasywritersoftiktok

One way to think about the difference between art and creativity, for its own sake, versus art aimed for marketplace success, and recognition is to recognize them as games played for very different purposes. A finite game is played for the purpose of winning: publication, sales, awards. An infinite game is played for the purpose of keeping the game going. ##art##creativity##marketing##artmarketing##writing##philosophy##philosophytok##culture##infinitegame##finitegame##finiteandinfinitegames##writertalk##writertok ##everydayinspiration##insight##fyp##freshperspective##unlockcreativity##myprocess ##artisticvision##JamesCarse##CreativeInspiration##CreativeGrowth##CreativeJourney##creativejourneytiktok##Artistry##CreativeLife##ArtistLife

Nourish your creativity by learning to stay with the anxiety of uncertainty, rather than deciding some thing, anything, just to have it in the rearview mirror. #Creativity #CreativeSpirit #CreatorsOfTiktok #Artist #ArtistOfTikTok #Creator, #CreativeLife #CreativeHappyLife #BestLife #MondayMotivation #Advice #CreativeAdvice #AdviceForArtists #AdviceToArtists
