I LOVE this approach and taking away the SMART goal. It doesn’t work for artists, but I would argue it doesn’t even work in the business world for the same reason – so much is out of your control.

I’ve been doing this unconsciously over the past year and Covid kind of forced me to move forward and I accomplished a number of things by just doing projects I’ve wanted to do for a while. I actually used my art as an outlet for my anxiety.

I’m a lamp work artist and last fall I created a foundational jewelry collection. I did 30 designs. Now that work is in a local shop and selling. I now have a body of work for applying to different online venues I want to participate in. I could ramble on and on but yes, totally agree with this post.
