99 of #100daychallenge: Top Ten Takeaways #1

The best part is that I’ve just been making all of this up the whole time. These Top Ten Takeaways have no ranking order and were not something I had planned to do.

Make. believe.

Make. Believe. has been the flow of how this challenge has unfolded. I had to start making something by writing or typing on a page or drawing a visual or imagining a visual. Other times, I had to sit in the space of Make. Believe. and wait for something. The process of Make. Believe, reinforced the feeling that I cannot make something I do not believe to some degree or some purpose. Make. Believe is also the space I go to find my connection to what it is I’m making so that I know I believe it.

The trick with the Make. Believe. process is that I have to be able to feel it. And even then, I have to be able to discern the way I feel about it to make sure I believe it as real all the way through me on some facet or the whole.

I love this quote from the movie, Being John Malkovich:

“There is truth and there are lies, and art always tells the truth. Even when it is lying.”

This is a powerful thought. It encompasses my greatest struggle : my greatest victory throughout this #100daychallenge — feeling the truth — in writing.

My greatest struggle : My greatest victory each day of this challenge.
