Implode.

Someone dear challenged me to conquer the world today, and to me that translated to 'pull your finger out and get crack-a-lackin with E L I X I R (my forever 'up & coming' jewellery line for those of you who don't know)'. It could have meant a number of things, but me being right-brained, opted to take the colourful & dreamy route. Now you're probably thinking, 'that doesn't sound like a challenge at all', but when your creative juices are involuntarily set to 'overflow' mode, and you feel like you're about to implode, you're suddenly faced with a new challenge - where do I start?!?

My brain.

Now, I originally started by flicking through over 30 fashion magazines (Russh, Oyster, Vogue, Frankie, In Style and Yen just to name a few) and throwing together an inspiration board. And inspire me it did. Not only do I want to be a jewellery designer. I now want to be a painter, swimwear designer, furniture designer, interior designer, landscape designer, AND I want to add a second line to my jewellery endeavour, 'ROSCO'. BAH! If only I could be/do all of the above... Don't want to be a 'jack of all trades, master of none' though!

I need some of this!

So now I'm trying to steer all my artistic energy into one direction, but it seems to want to veer off every time I get it on the straight & narrow. I know my main focus should be Elixir, and I want my main focus to be Elixir, but something in the back of my mind is nigling at me, telling me not to ignore all the other ideas protruding my brain just because they bare little, if no, relevance to Elixir. So what do I do?! Do I allow a little left-over juice for these other concepts (which may in-turn generate more creativity/inspiration), or do I just solely concentrate on Elixir and give time to these other ideas when I've made substantial progress with my number one endeavour?!

E L I X I R

E L I X I R

Ohh I don't know!!!

I think this little pickle calls for bed time. I'm tired, and I'm sure being this sleepy can't be good for such important decision making :P Ahhh you know life is good when something like this is your biggest problem (if you can even call it that)!

Nighty night all!

To the one that challenged me.
