100 Day Project

4/11/2017

​“If creativity is a habit, then the best creativity is the result of good work habits.
They are the nuts and bolts of dreaming.”
— Twyla Tharp, The Creative Habit

 

I’ve jumped into the 100 Day Project on Instagram. 100 days of creativity. 100 days of a daily practice. You choose your daily practice of creativity, announce it to the world, and post it daily on Instagram.

The 100 Day Project began in 2008 and continues to evolve. The 2017 project involves sharing your daily project on Instagram with two hashtags: #100dayproject and your own special hashtag. This year's project began April 4th.

“Practice takes time. Practice takes commitment. Practice is a radical act in this speeded up world.  Through practice, we develop a creative habit. Through habit, we reconnect with and know ourselves again as a creative being.”

PRACTICE IS A RADICAL ACT IN THIS SPEEDED UP WORLD.

For the 100 day project, you declare what your project will be. Mine will be art journaling. But I have created rules for myself. I was first a daily pages journaler (just writing, no art). I have been journaling/writing every morning for almost 20 years. I come from the world of academia where you write in long sentences.  As an art journaler. I want to get better at collapsing my sentences into thought bites – something you can chew on.  

If a sound bite is a short extract from an interview, chosen for its pungency or appropriateness, then a thought bite (my wording) is a short extract from my head.

So my 100 Day Project is to art journal with thought bites. My personal hashtag is #100daysofthoughtbites.

I hope this is a good idea. Ask me after 100 days. I am so curious to see how it evolves.
