Nurturing The Song Within
Man does indeed know intuitively more than he rationally understands. The question, however, is how we can gain access
to the potentials of knowledge contained in the depth of us, how we can achieve increased capacities of direct intuition and enlarged awareness.
- Ira Progoff, At A Journal Workshop
The Role Of A Financial Reserve In Creative Work
No great work has ever been produced except after a long interval of still and musing meditation.
- Walter Bagehot
A long interval of still and musing meditation is expensive. To create a psychic work that truly gives, you need time to work and rework. Time to think. It can’t be rushed. A financial reserve allows an artist time to experiment and make mistakes.
A reserve takes the pressure off and allows you to make decisions according to your own priorities. A reserve allows you to keep your word. A reserve allows you to say no to projects that are uninspiring or that don’t fit your objectives.
