Saturday Morning

In an interview I saw with Chris Gardner (author of "Pursuit of Happiness") he made a statement regarding becoming successful.  He said to find something that you enjoy so much that at night you just can hardly wait till morning so that you can do it again.  I was watching this while perched up on pillows in bed.  Funny thing, I had just had that same thought!

I love what I do and long to be in my studio.  As soon as the sun comes up, I crawl out of bed, do the necessaries (make coffee of course) and head for my bright and cheerful studio.  However, on Saturday morning I do things a little differently.  I still get up before anyone else in the house....still make coffee....but this time I take that cup of coffee into the sun room and snuggle up in my comfy chair.  IT'S MAGAZINE TIME!

I do eventually end up in my studio, but now with fresh ideas.  Unless I'm facing a strict deadline, I use Saturday mornings as a time to create and work on something totally different than I have been all week.  I try to get out of my comfort zone.  It's a time to design for me, and only me.  It feels good!

Yippee, tomorrow is Saturday!
