I did it again.

My fourth time buying The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron for someone on a night out. As far as I know, none of them have started reading it. However, I have, and it changed my life. So I don’t think I’ll stop buying anytime soon.

Since I’ve started The Artist’s Way, I’ve gotten into the best shape of my life, ran a half marathon, and started posting content and gained 2k followers. Which, to be honest, typing out feels pretty good. But now I’m stuck. I start my “real life” (a concept which I hate - I will write about this later) job in DTX in July. It would be easy to be content these next 5 months just having a blast with the people I’ve gotten so close with over my four years in college.

However, that idea makes me nauseous. Not hanging out with my friends, but the idea of being content, of just settling. When I was in the rhythm of training for my race, posting content, and working, I felt so alive. I felt as if I was really being pushed and I missed that.

At times it may have been I was being pushed in the wrong direction, but is that worse than never being pushed at all? I know that I won’t settle until I find out. Maybe I will start The Artist’s Way again. I know I will be buying it again. I’m not worried, though, I know I’ll start something. Until then, find me out if you’d like a copy.

Best,

Dio
