Take care of yourself from "summary" of Steal Like An Artist by Austin Kleon
It's important to remember that creativity is not a solitary act. It requires a healthy mind and body, which means taking care of yourself should be a top priority. This includes getting enough sleep, eating well, and exercising regularly. Taking care of yourself also means taking time to relax and recharge. Creative work can be demanding, both mentally and physically, so it's essential to find ways to alleviate stress and maintain a healthy work-life balance. In addition to physical well-being, mental health is equally important. Creative work can be emotionally taxing, and it's easy to become overwhelmed or burned out. It's crucial to take breaks when needed, seek support from friends or professionals, and practice self-care techniques that work for you. Remember that creativity is a journey, not a sprint. It's essential to pace yourself, set realistic goals, and celebrate your achievements along the way. Taking care of yourself also means setting boundaries and saying no when necessary. It's easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of the creative world, but it's essential to prioritize your well-being above all else. Learn to recognize when you need a break, when you need to say no to a project, or when you need to ask for help. Taking care of yourself is not selfish; it's a necessary part of the creative process.- Taking care of yourself is about honoring your mind, body, and spirit. It's about recognizing your limitations, respecting your needs, and nurturing your creativity. By prioritizing self-care, you'll not only be a better artist but also a happier and healthier individual. So remember, taking care of yourself is not a luxury; it's a necessity.
