The links below are to artist resources and motivational products that I have personally experienced. I thoroughly endorse each link and encourage you to visit, learn, enjoy...
What can I say about Shed's crazy, wonderful book? Read it and wait for the motivation and ideas to happen! This is a one off and you'll find yourself giggling and cheering Shed on as you follow the story of his inventions and whacky schemes.
When it comes to artist resources - or rather, artist residencies - the Rimbun Dahan Malaysian residency is a wonderful way for artists to increase their art skills, experiment, explore a new culture. Hijjas and Angela Kasturi, who run the residency, are charming, creative, generous hosts - whom I shall never forget. I would encourage you to further explore this site.
This prize-winning novel for adolescents is currently inspiring and empowering people of all ages and backgrounds. I defy you to read it and not fall in love with it.
The Mastery Club inspires and empowers young people to take responsibility for creating the life of their dreams. According to this savvy author, this is the ONLY book that teaches universal laws and success principles (including practical tools like goal-setting, affirmations, visualisation and treasure mapping) in a page-turning novel. (It makes a fabulous gift.) In any case, prepare to be delighted.
An excellent artist resource for assisting Australian artists at all stages of their career. Most of the workshops offered are free and I've found them to be practical, clear and helpful.
If you are contemplating building a seriously good website, click on the above link and take the trouble to explore this site.
Ken Evoy and the Site Build It team are fantastic!
Those of you who know me, know I am passionate about Spanish - having lived in Spain for over 8 years. I have now set up a website for learning Spanish. If you have a lust for languages, and Spanish in particular, come visit my Spanish site!
(I've been a busy beaver and have also set up another site for my art.)
I now meditate most days (in my case, just before I go to sleep), thanks to this truly wonderful CD system created by Centerpointe, which is backed by tons of scientific evidence. Daily meditation such as this is a self-investment in enhanced creativity, increased focus, and helping to remove blocks and stress. (Follow the link for more info. It's fascinating!) And if you are meditating the old fashioned way, this is also great!
Finally, if you are seriously into self development, I urge you to investigate my law of attraction site...something I have successfully used to focus on my career goals. Start out with Mike Dooley's wonderful "Infinite Possibilities" audio book. It's brilliant and it's fun!
Wishing you everything good,
Margot.
p.s. Remo - a very cool store to visit for gifts and other delights - are offering a free t-shirt for first time customers.
