I am old years older today.

This header requires Fur Affinity Premium to view. While an alarming rate of people on here are younger than the site, another thing is my own age. Today is the 35th time I have been around the sun and there are many more laps to go. I got a simple birthday wish and it is to keep a sated tum and if you wish to toss in you can via https://www.ko-fi.com/deusexkittycoon and if not cool I am sure there are few left that read these things anyway.
While here and admittedly not 100% there, I do want to get back to my 3D projects for my last hope right now to save my venture is the audience. I have a few projects and the gold standard to produce them by now, but my big hurdle is motivation really. With ongoing issues like market saturation, AI, and inability to seek govt aid, I am on my own and working with an ever degrading body that puts my future goals at risk. While some things weren't meant to be, this dream is more and more possible thanks to advancements in my creative suite and the few legends that have kept me alive today, but in no way am I in a place to get comfortable.
So with these little updates I have one more thing, I am back in my hometown and I may remain here for several years to come... I have no plans to attend conventions as I have concluded that massive IRL events are extremely dangerous and unsanitary. I don't have any intent to go to Albuquerque for anything unless I am invited in advance, and I definitely do not have any physical merch for other occasions. If I am in the big towns I'm there on my own leisure.

Having struggled for years with motivation, a hard truth I've learned that sometimes motivation doesn't happen until after one starts working on projects! Your experience will vary, but what's helped me personally is not doing things that will absolutely distract me, like video games! If I play video games I'll get stuck all day! Then, set a regular time to work on your project, whether you feel it or not. Keep doing it for 20 minutes.
It's OK if you don't feel like continuing, or if you don't have anything to show for it! The important thing is to make any attempts at doing your projects in 20 minute bursts as you can!
The other important to do this daily (or at least as often as you can) is to prevent skill decay. Like, it takes a bit of time to get back up to speed after not doing it for a while! Like, for me, this also usually means a bit of disgust / disappointment / discouragement I feel at myself, which makes it even harder to want to work on my projects!
For what it's worth, I believe in you! I'm following you because I want to see you succeed! 😁
