Blog by Paula: "Step Cross Over"

There's an old square saying:"Take what you love, and make it your job!"
But I heard a new twist on it: if that isn't working, change what you love.
Add something. Consolidate. Adjust your angle.
Experiment.
Think.
Maybe there's more to what you love, than what you ever thought. Or maybe less.

People who write and publish their works say to hopeful writers: "Find your voice!" Maybe that means you don't really know what your voice is. You figure, "hopefully God knows..." But it doesn't mean you've found it.
And then when you simply tell people you're, say, an artist, just to see what they'll say,
they start telling you what a rotten thing it is, that you love. And they especially relish telling you, "OMG, the competition in that field is FIERCE" !!

Well, anyway, there's more than one way - another square old saying - to skin a cat. Suppose you have an idea that you love but it's not selling. You think "hey, I'd rather be a starving artist; at least that way  I have my integrity....." But secretly you're wondering whatever happened to your "AGENT"  and how come the world is taking such a long time to beat a pathway to your door...

Try this: think of ways  to blossom, that maybe other people have already blossomed at...maybe there's concepts out there that you like, or fields which you have always wanted to get  your hands on,  or improve on?

"You don't need to re-invent the wheel, you just need to make a better wheel." Tune in next time: could be your niche is waiting for you...i know mine is...
Journey with me as I do some exploration...into COLOR. Into a new gist on COLORS.
