A Dog's Life.

Lawn Mower = Zen

Some of my best ideas come to me while I'm cutting the yard.

Where do you find your moments of Zen?

Step 1). Brainstorming

Here's my tip of the day. The most important part of every project is brainstorming. Find a quiet spot to be alone with your thoughts each day. Start with 20 minutes. If 20 minutes turns into 30 or 40 great but make sure you get at least 20 to yourself.

If you've never done this before you might feel silly or fidgety at first. That's okay. Eventually it will pass and this will become the best part of your day. Make sure you find a spot where you will not be interrupted or disturbed and guard this time... it's yours.

Bring a note pad with you. When you are done write down your thoughts. If you don't have any thoughts, that's fine. It may take a little practice to find your focus. The idea is to allow your mind to run freely without the clutter of the rest of your day.

Deadline Panic

Today is October 4th and my deadline is not till March yet I'm still wondering how I'm going to get all this work done....

Smelling the Roses

Today my daughter had the day off from school. So we worked outside on the patio for a little while. When we got bored we went to the park to play and feed the ducks. Man, it's good to be the boss.

Patriot Monday Night Football

Almost never get to see the Patriots play living in North Carolina.

The Idea.

As an artist one of the most distressing things to me is the lack of visuals on most of the blogs I read. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate all the incredible information available out there. I read a bunch... but I have a hard time keeping up. I mean there are just so many good ones out there and only so many hours in a day. Information overload I guess you could say.

Remember when you were a kid and the main reason you picked up a book was to look at the pictures. Never mind the story, if you liked the pictures that was enough. That's kind of the idea behind this blog. Just pictures and as little text as possible.

Short and sweet. A day in the life of Bob... one day at a time.
Enjoy
Bob
