A question to consider:
What steps can you take to commit to getting better at what you do?
As of now, I feel like I’m floundering with the use of my time to create. But perhaps that feeling is a misperception. “Give yourself grace, Rose.”
I have travelled about 2,000 miles driving and now I’m home. Today I have plenty to do, yet at noon I am still in my pajamas. After sleeping late, I’ve made and eaten a nice breakfast with Skip, had a good Lutheran Hour devotion with him, and sat to check email and this devotion. Here’s what I focus on today:
“What steps can you take to commit to getting better at what you do?”
Here goes:
- Work on my June 2026 newsletter for one-half hour.
- Get out and look at the landscape painting how-to book I bought.
- Prayer time (15 min.) for next week’s creative tasks and scheduling those.
Now to get up from my easy chair. I will “start by starting,” as Meryl Streep said.
What do you do that you’d like to do excellently?
