All of Your Problems will go Away

If you paint more, most of your problems will go away.
It is true.

You will feel balanced, level-headed, whole, and grounded because you paint every day. As soon as you get distracted, or go on a trip, life intrudes and you stop for a week or more, you feel off, out of tune, cranky, disturbed, and maybe even depressed.

Painting habitually is the best medicine for an ongoing joyful and peaceful life. Relationships feel better, money loses its power, irritations melt away, the sky seems bluer and the grass greener when we are painting all the time.

What do I mean by all the time?

I literally mean twenty hours a week or more. Forty is even better.

Consistent, steady workflow in your studio is the fix to most of your problems. Maybe problems will still pop up from time to time, but they won't feel like such a big deal.

Consistent painting is all about flow. I like to call it the creative river. There is no sweeter place than this life-giving river — but there is nothing worse than sitting on the edge, watching it flow by with all your artist friends in there having a good time without you.

Painting a lot consistently will just make your world right. You will feel more confident and like you are really in your own skin doing what you were born to do. It won’t take long before you will always know how to paint and “bad” painting days will be behind you. You will know how to fix your paintings if they are off.

The agonizing feeling of self doubt will end and you will never again run out of ideas.
The more you paint, the more ideas you will get. Your artwork will shift and change quickly which will enable you to go deeper in your voice and find the ultimate unique work that is so true to you. Imagine mixing paint, drawing form, and landing accurate brushstrokes all completely automatic and without thought. You will paint faster than you dreamed and create work at a skill level that gives you the ultimate confidence to show your work to anyone at any time.

This list alone should be enough to get you into the studio. This doesn't take years and years either. It takes only 6-12 months of painting 40 hours a week — or 12-24 months of painting 20 hours per week.

For some, the magic happens even sooner.

Don't avoid painting. Don't put it off. DO NOT let resistance win! Your very best life depends on it.

• Not only will your painting greatly improve, but you will go deeper into your voice.
• You will feel better and gain self-confidence.
• You will shake the heavens and the earth because you are living your purpose.
• You are spending yourself on the very thing that will shift all that pertains to your destiny towards you.
• Doors will open, and you will meet new people.
• Strategies for success will be revealed.
• Your everyday life will be enhanced. You are positioned for the ultimate success.
• You will be unstoppable.

So FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!

Get into that studio and paint and don't stop. It’s hours and hours behind the brush that is your golden ticket.
