These days I find myself getting up earlier and earlier…if anyone had told me a year ago that I’ll be a very early riser, I would have laughed in derision. But here’s me actually wondering how and why I jump out of my very cosy bed at 5.30 am and at the same time asking myself ‘why ever not?’ I never thought I could be a morning person…(I was so wrong). It definitely is all about pushing yourself and I have taken a whip to myself! I am a soldier taking no prisoners (of excuses to lay in bed). Learning to not take ‘lackadaisical’ as an excuse. Timing myself constantly in order to beat my own records.
Spontaneity is the watchword that informs my art practice. My artwork celebrates the energy of abstract expressionism.
'why not?' underlines my creative process. Forget the box! Its obsolete...it's all about whatever shape you want to throw on that dance floor! The process drives my practice!! For me, work well done is work I have thoroughly enjoyed making...work that has made me think, sweat, cry, scream and come back for more!!! Work that gets my back up; pushes me...gives me cause for doubt. Makes me push in order for 'why not?' to become possible. Boundaries? What boundaries?

Great stuff, love this! 🙂
Like you I have also been getting up earlier as part of my routine and have enjoyed the feeling of a purposeful and productive morning.
I’m not quite where you’re at yet as I do find it difficult to jump out of bed if it’s dark and cold, but I’m hoping the summer time will be a great time to build on and establish this habit!
Loving the content, keep doing what you’re doing 🙂
PS – On a related note, I’m on the hunt for feedback for my new show The HERO Podcast! It’s all about creating healthy habits. My latest episode might be of interest to you, where Derek Doepker shares ideas about making lasting changes. You can check it out (and maybe leave a short review if you like) here: http://apple.co/2kjNoGN
