I am a bit off of my game as of late, I find that I am Serving too Many Masters in my life. I have greater difficulty balancing Family, Work (IT), Band/Music, Art, and now learning to Tattoo. I feel that I am fragmented and can't give each one the attention that they deserve.

I find that I often just slide by throughout the day, only sleeping about 4 hours a night. My mind races never at rest. I so need to focus on my cores and I often feel that I need to relearn every thing I know. I miss the newness and wonderment of discovery and seem to have lost some of my passion and drive along the way. I know that I can do much better work, but I get so hung up on the details, lack of creative inspiration, and with beating my self up with "Is that the best I can do!" AARRGGG!!!

I see such amazing talent out in the world, and seeing my limitations as and artist/designer I just wonder why even bother some days. But then my inner voice yells at me to not give up without a fight, all that I have I've earned and I have not had handout or fancy schooling. But this brings me to where I am. I feel that I just do not have as much fight in me these days as I use-to (Married life will do that).

So I am putting it out to anyone is willing write back, when you hit the wall:

1. What gets you back on track????

2. Where do you find your inspiration to carry??

3. What have you done to improve your skills?

Thanks, for reading my BS blabbering - LOL, some time one just have to vent.
