Something of value doesn’t have to come from making.

Everyone will have slow days where our outputs slower or even our energy levels are low. These are often under valued moments.
Use them, check in with yourself. Burnout must be avoided if you want to sustain momentum in your marking. Reflect and adapt where you can.
Getting “better” at what you do…
Success must be defined before we can consistently achieve anything. Ask yourself to reflect and update that definition for each project or piece as you need to.
