Creativity is your most valuable resource, but the tricky part is guarding it.
Like Constantin Brancusi recognized in Picasso, some people and environments drain you. I've seen students pay expensive tuition, only to sit in school wearing headphones all day, trying to focus while their energy slowly drains.
These "vampires" come in many forms, sapping your energy until there’s little left for your craft.
The advantage of studying from home is that you set the rules. You’re not paying a fortune to sit in a classroom, surrounded by distractions. At home, every hour you would’ve spent commuting or in noisy labs becomes an opportunity to dive deeper into your work, uninterrupted.
Energy is finite. Every distraction, every unnecessary conversation chips away at your creative spark. In a school setting, you often have no choice but to share space with people who test your boundaries. Brancusi knew better, he guarded his energy fiercely, ensuring it was spent on what mattered most. That’s a lesson worth embracing.
When you study independently, self-discipline becomes your greatest ally. It takes work, motivation, and routine, but every step forward is yours to control. No expensive tuition required, just focused effort and smart energy management.
Being diligent isn’t easy, but it offers freedom. You set your own schedule, and you develop the resilience to push through challenges without relying on anyone else’s permission or approval.
In the end, it’s not just about learning skills, it’s about ensuring your creative energy flows directly into your work and not into someone else’s distractions.
P.S. The best artists aren’t just talented, they know how to protect their spark from vampires. Be like Brancusi. Guard your energy, and use it wisely. 🌟
