Mmmm... Who you are, choosing targets, doom scrolling and outsmarting phones

Things to make you go Mmmm…

by Darien J 

"To encourage and inspire creativity by sharing more wisdom every week than any electronic artist in the world.”


Three thoughts for your creativity and one on mine.


3 for you:

Who are you?

“Who you are, what you think, feel, and do, what you love—is the sum of what you focus on.” - by Cal Newport


Live a focused life.

“I’ll choose my targets with care … then give them my rapt attention. In short, I’ll live the focused life, because it’s the best kind there is.” - Winifred Gallagher


Replace doom scrolling with a purpose.

“I believe that for many people, the machines become a replacement for purpose. They don’t have time to figure out their vision for making a difference in their world, so they aren’t sure why they are doing what they are doing.” - Arnold Schwarzenegger


1 from me

“Be smarter than your phone.

Use your phone to enhance your creativity rather than distract you from it.

Notifications can be useful reminders for tasks you set in your creative life rather than continuously dragging you away from it.

And give your brain the regular quiet time it needs to support your creativity.”


Until next week
