Since I decided to re-open my Etsy shop, I have gradually grasped the pattern of a Soho artist. Unlike other jobs, there is no specific 9-5 schedule. This week I have so obsessed about the planning of new products that I can hardly fall asleep every night. It has been 13 days since I started Little Room. Though the sale number remains zero, I can by no means stop coming up with new products. The buyers see not only every single product. Instead, they also want to know if a seller is dependable and consistent. It is a fatal mistake for me to have left my web store alone for 4 months. This huge blank signifies the same thing as the years without any work experience in job applicants' resumes. The simple statements or numbers actually convey crucial messages.
有創意有想法還不夠，每天有固定的進度，但有時身體的狀態無法配合，所以可能我原本已走到計劃的某個階段，過了一兩天便完全推翻，這是很令人沮喪的事，此時打掃家裡居然就成了愉快的工作，把自己弄得汗留夾背的再重新開始，假如暫時無法修改原來的想法，不如先用下一個點子，例如說我昨天剛好去爬山，今日不想山林也難。總歸一句話，生活裡每一處每一物都得是靈感。
It's far from enough to be blessed with creativity only. There has to be a fixed schedule every day, but sometimes my physical condition can't meet the demands. I might think I'm almost there, but the idea can be overthrown one or two days later. To be honest, this is very depressing. One of the getaways is to clean the apartment, which turns out to offer me temporary pleasure. I'll start anew after sweating all over. If I can't modify the idea, I might as well move on to the next one. For example, I can't stop seeing mountains and trees since I went on a hike yesterday. In a word, every little detail in my daily life can inspire me.
