			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So I&#8217;ve been trying to punch my creative juices in the gut to create something artistic or original. These creative juices have been super lazy lately and I&#8217;m not happy with them. I often get these lulls and it seems I&#8217;m in a constant battle to figure out how to move past these blocks.</p>
<p>For the most part, things are good; work is steady and keeping things pretty fresh, I&#8217;ve been making &#8216;<a title="Beer Books" href="http://grellowstudio.com/wordpress/tag/beer-books/">Beer Books</a>&#8216; in hopes to make a few extra bucks at upcoming art markets (and it&#8217;s a great excuse to consume tasty beer), &#8216;<a title="Grellow Shots" href="http://grellowstudio.com/wordpress/tag/grellow-shots/">Grellow Shots</a>&#8216; (which only lasted 4 weeks) was making me take photos and browse through Flickr on a regular basis, I&#8217;ve got plans to start painting, and I&#8217;ve been getting quite a bit of reading done (including blogs). I just don&#8217;t feel like I&#8217;ve done anything tangible or worthwhile so far. Maybe I make too many excuses? Maybe I have no ambition? Or, like I keep telling myself, maybe I should quit talking and start doing.</p>
<p>Wherein lies the problem &#8211; I don&#8217;t know where to start. I don&#8217;t know what I <em>want</em> to do. What is <em>something?</em> What is <em>anything? </em>Already I<em> </em>don&#8217;t keep my blog up-to-date enough, I don&#8217;t take enough photos, I don&#8217;t design much outside of work, I haven&#8217;t started painting yet, I&#8217;ve got tons of books I need to read&#8230; the list goes on. I can start there, but will that be enough?</p>
<p>Maybe I shouldn&#8217;t have written this post so late (4am), but I need accountability. I need responsibility. But above all, I need initiative. Something to drive me to do <em>something.</em></p>
<p>So, if you&#8217;ve got any ideas, thoughts, comments or criticisms &#8211; I&#8217;d love to hear em. Until then, I&#8217;ll keep reading over this post in hopes for that killer creative spark. Watch out creative juices&#8230;</p>
