This really summed up my work life 3:35. Being an (extreme!) introvert, I was so physically and mentally drained by the end of my shift that I had zero energy, motivation or creativity by the time I got home from the office. To work from home and set your own hours if you can manage it is a MUCH better option especially for introvert artists! One tip I'd add is to make sure you don't assume you'll have plenty of time later to do your art. Even if you are single with no kids, your parents will need more of your time and assistance as they age. (My mother had dementia which demanded an incredible amount of my time and energy.) Put the time in for your art now as much as is feasible.

I totally agree. I used to be full of energy after but post-pandemic, I've become quite introverted and selective on how I use my social battery! I think there are lots of jobs that allow for this flexibility. I agree with using this time as much as possible and now being the time I'll have the most of it. Thank you ❤️

Great ideas, i am so massively disorganised, the closest i have is that deciding that process videos cone out on Wednesday and collage of the week videos come out Friday and any spare ones on Monday. I also work a weird rota and have a family
