Vesperisms Episode 5: From Perception to Thought

As part of our focus on the first principle: ARTISTS SEE, we're going down the pathway of artistic process: Perception, Thought, Speech and Action. This week we're focusing on Thought: what forms it takes, why it's so important to think for yourself, and how to restore your inner dialogue without outside voices telling you what to think.

This week's Recommended Read is...nothing. I'm encouraging you to read nothing this week, and set aside 20 minutes a day to do stream of consciousness writing, in an effort to reconnect with your own thoughts.

Vesperisms: The Art of Thinking for Yourself is the podcast to help you make sense of your place in this crazy world by reclaiming an artistic worldview. Everything around us is trying to push us into boxes, but that's not how artists' minds work. Let's get off that detour and back on the main road to thinking for ourselves: as artists.
