Profit in Peace 9: Day Five
I’m sooo tired. This is completely the wrong energy in the morning for me.
It is disrupting my peace.
My thoughts:
- I’m about done with this challenge
- I feel absolutely horrible tired and I don’t want to continue
- This is the opposite of peace for me
- A line of credit is better than a loan for businesses
- I don’t know why JT is with this 7 figure profit guy, seems kinda scammy
- It is important to know the right question to ask
- The question sometimes isn’t how, it is who
- Your potential is relative and contextual
- It is about the place and the people
Sova Fanart 3: Class Unit 1 Day 3
It’s been a full week since I last drew for this drawing competition. I’ve been feeling a lot of dread because there are so many details in drawing Sova and I don’t feel any closer to getting better at him because it takes so long to draw a full figure.
I drew for a full hour but didn’t get very far.
Here was the reference:

Here is my rough sketch:

And here is my lineart:

The lines don’t feel that confident and don’t seem to be creating forms, more just tracing lines.
I feel that I need to slow down. I like the idea of the exercises but I feel that they need to be broken down further into smaller syllabi. Since I don’t have much time to draw every day and each task every day feels a bit daunting and overwhelming, I need to break them down further to learn at a fast rate.
I also wish I could draw from the live model, but the issue is that you can’t hold an active shot (like shooting or doing the ultimate).
At the same time, I said I would embrace failure and I did. I still believe in my overall plan and I believe when I look back, this will actually be helpful even though its painful right now.
Valorant: Slow Down During Danger
Something that I noticed when playing Valorant today, is that I tend to speed up and rush when I feel under pressure or stressed, when in actuality, I need to slow down.
Last game I trusted my instincts, and really slowed down when I felt danger and I felt it was much better.
I realized that when I feel safe, I can move fast. When I feel in danger, it is time to exercise extreme caution like in real life.
Workpost 8: Crawling
I did not wake up feeling good. I went to bed at 11:40 (much earlier to my credit! I ended up not working on one of my projects and didn’t play Valorant). However, I couldn’t fall asleep because I just showered and my body was too hot.
This morning, I went for a walk and I crawled for about 30 minutes. Crawling feels EXTREMELY good. I found a way to do it very naturally. I think it is funny how great hardship yet again provides so much value. I know how to crawl because I had to learn how to walk properly after messing up my knee so much that it hurt to walk. In learning how to walk I have a clear idea of how to shift my weight and do the same thing when I crawl. I’m going to try to crawl more throughout the day.
Other than crawling, I did feel extremely happy last night driving around but again in the morning I feel kind of lonely and depressed and I wonder again what I can do to soothe that.
Perhaps, I will play some Valorant today, do some art and music, and more crawling because those things all make me happy. I also reached out to a lot of friends yesterday and a lot of people wanted to talk today so maybe I will talk to them too. I am excited to go on the trip to California with my brother and sister!
As for the different projects, here are my thoughts:
- AI Consulting: I’m happy with the new direction, but nervous about shooting the videos
- Art Coaching: Really excited about my new ideas, interested in creating the materials that I’ve been planning for
- Art Coaching Product Research: Feeling pretty anxious about this since this is what I dropped yesterday due to time constraints
- Demo work: feel bored by it
- I also want to revist my knee challenge for my spar with my friend coming up and my knee challenge for the same reason
