Artist's Date: Which is the goal?
I literally carcked open The Artist's Way yesterday and have been going through the biggest creative block / existential criss after a bunch of career and relationship changes. It feels like exactly what I need. Anyway, I understand the Morning Pages and did my first this morning. As far as the Artist's Date, I was not entirely clear by the explanation and there were only a few examples...
Is the goal to do something that creatively fuels you for two hours/week?
Or is the goal to have two hours where you are "doing something" where you have time to reflect?
My gut says the former but her examples sounded more like the latter.
Some of the ideas I had initially aren't necessarily the most peaceful to begin with (producing a song, making a dj mix, watching films) compared with the examples of like going to a museum or sculpting something.
I didn't want to research too much online out of fear of sort of spoiling the rest of the book so was wondering what people on here thought? Is it more important to spend those two hours doing something creatively fulfilling or to spend those two hours doing something where I find I can be more reflective?
