Another Boring Family Invite? Just Say No

So many people make themselves attend events with family members and friends that they rather not go to.  How many times were you invited to something that you went to even though your gut told you not to?  Once you arrived, you probably said to yourself, "Why did I come?"  Don't do that to yourself again.  If you don't feel like or want to go don't, but sometimes your feelings will trick you.

When I wrote the book, Should I Go to the Party? by Nicholl McGuire I shared the doubts, fears, and disputes that people experience related to family invites, party attendance, and other things related to gatherings.  There will be those times that you will wish you had gone and other times when you wish you would have stayed home.  The key to discerning whether an invite is worth an RSVP is if you have some answers to who, what, where, when, and how.  Get as much information in advance about an event and you will be better able to determine whether it will be a yawn or a laugh or two.

Check out my short-read, Should I Go to the Party? today.  It is one of those books that you won't look at the next event invite in quite the same way.  Available in paperback and print.

When was the last time you worked on your hobby? Improve It! Painting, Drawing, Photos, and More

Be open to the possibility of enhancing your craft. There are many classes online that will help you do more with your work. Rather than search for general terms related to your interest, be more specific and include names of some people you admire who do what you do.
What Else Can I Do on the Internet? by Nicholl McGuire

Find new sites that allow you to do a number of fun things online. One day I came across an entertaining site for those who enjoy doing creative things with faces. The downloadable link was free and before long I discovered I could do so much with my existing photos. I have also viewed sites where I can create my own stories using animated figures or others someone else has drawn. 
 
On your computer, you most likely have a software program called, "Paint." This program allows you to do a variety of things. You can freely draw, upload photos, artwork and other images and add your creations to them. Take a moment to look at what you already have on your computer and start tapping into your creative genius.

Check out the latest trends in your art genre. After surfing around the net, I noticed an offer to upload some images for sell. Although the requirements were quite specific, I learned at the time what people really wanted to see and kept that in mind before I submitted anything.

Many times I have stumbled on sites that display many unique things people do with their art. Some will offer how-to tutorials while others will take you on a shopping experience to help you obtain needed supplies. I have viewed some artists take the most mundane things and turn them into masterpieces right before my eyes.

If you are curious about what more you can do with your talent, I suggest visiting websites that have the latest books, audio, and visuals. Also, check out forums, online clubs, and other places that you can connect with individuals like yourself. I joined many sites over the years that catered specifically to writers. I also registered with websites that paid me to write, share recordings and photos. To date, I still enjoy watching the latest videos on how to paint specific things to add in my acrylic paintings. Over the years, I have also encouraged my children to watch online videos to help them play musical instruments; learn to draw, complete school work, practice for sports, fix computer issues, and more...
