learning the habit of showing up

I did my daily lump today. It felt really good. I had a spring in my step for the rest of the day because I tackled my resistance and just showed up and did it. I really like the clay lump I shaped (the finished creation) and I know that some days it won't always flow like that, but it was a very sweet beginning. I think getting to it as soon as possible in the day is important because as Amy reminded me in the comments there is danger of procrastinating until never! It is easy for me to procrastinate doing things I really enjoy. And then there is the "I'm not in the mood" scenario. I know that I usually get in the mood once I'm there. I know that I just need to -as that Nike slogan says- just do it. I know these things in my mind. I even know them in other areas of my life. I hope that my daily lumps will teach me to know this with my creative passions and to know it with my experience. I feel it is time for me to really learn the habit of showing up to the clay.
