Man, there are so many ideas running through my head right now…
It’s like a flicking through channels without control…
I’ve been planning a lot of things lately. I realized how out of control my energy has been with my charm business. Not like I’ve been making poor decisions but planning things out. My sister recently got into making her own business (I won’t say what ) and a few days ago I was hearing her talk about that she needed a business plan.
That sparked something in me because I’ve been in a confusing rut with the charms. What to make, how to make it, how I’m going to marker them etc. Then to add my untamed energy with my near anxiety nature of doing things right at the minute attitude I’ve been stressing myself out a bit. I had to sit down and tell myself to calm down, take a breather, read some yaoi and think things out.
When I really had time to step back to look how I was doing things and how it affected me I knew mapping things out was the best thing for me since the latté drink. I realized that I’m better with putting things down on paper and listing down the things I’m going to do instead keeping them in my head. I forget things, get caught up with something that I found out about, and the other stuff get shoved in the corner of my cranium where they won’t see the light of day for about 48 hours. I need sticky notes on the inside of my eye lids to remember that I can see. :P
Anyway, for about a week now I’ve been putting things down that I want to do. What kind of charms I want to make, What kind of jewelry I want to make, What animes I want to make charms out of etc. I find it so relaxing to have all make thoughts on paper so I don’t have to worry about remembering them all. I also want to make illustration of what the charms are going to look like and how I’m going to make them. The one problem I had with since first time making the charms are the ideas. I have all this clay in front of me, this freaking huge brain that has been making ideas for 19 years and I can’t for the life of me think about anything to make really. But when I sit down away from it to think about what I should make it comes much easier.
It’s so crazy because at least with a paper and pencil I can start drawing whatever and come up with something by the end of the drawing process. Not so much with the clay. It’s so much you can do with the clay and you can create ANY thing you want. However I do have to give me some slack because I am new to it and the ideas will come faster when I work with it more.
Yeah, planning things out is the way to go for me instead of trying to be spontaneous. I was thinking that I was too careful and I should be a little more off the handle with things. Screw that. I HAVE to think things over; I have to give time to myself process things so I can see the possible pit falls or possible rewards in the matter. Thankfully I haven’t exercise that impulsive way of handling things with more important decisions. I hate having to learn things the hard way.
So with my business plans coming along I’ve was thinking of starting a Tokyo mew mew club. Yes, I know what your thinking, not another TMM club that you can post fan fics and the like. Don’t worry, I know there has been a bloom of TMM clubs out there but I’m set on making mine stand out and helpful to artists of all kinds. I’m going to save my ideas for it later since I hate typing long journals.
That’s just something that you can look forward too ;D
Till then!
