Letters for Creatives - Back on the path | #115
Hello, this is Celeste. I have been writing poems since 2017 and my low-fantasy crime novel Project Dylan since 2022. Letters for Creatives is the place where I share my thoughts on writing, creativity, resources for creatives, and interview creators and authors. Life is demanding so much of my physical and mental strength lately. It didn’t even surprise me that I am now back on my ‘self-improvement era’ after having my first morning yoga class in quite a while. But my intention is different this time. When the teacher (who is my friend) asked for my plan after class and if I am going for another workout session, I said “no, I am going to chill in the park.” I ended up going to grab pineapple bun and egg tart, being on the tram for an hour and writing my novel until I could not take it anymore. Comparing last Sunday to my last ‘self-improvement era’, I know that I no longer want to bite off more than I can chew. After knowing doing that doesn’t lead to the result I want (burn out, imposter syndrome that never walk away), I want to find the middle ground where I keep improving myself 1% every day but also enjoy my life. But my corner for podcasts is still here. Tim Ferriss and Alex Hormozi were on separate Modern Wisdom podcast episodes with Chris Williamson. They are filled with gems that I would keep reflecting. I have edited some highlights for grammatical reason. If you want to know the context better, I have the timestamps below for each of the highlight below. 19 Harsh Truths About Human Nature - Alex HormoziOn sabotaging oneself (Timestamp: 3:19)
