On productivity.

Art takes as much intentional time as it needs for something to realize.

If you're trying to decide if you're being productive or not, perhaps the question ought to be...

Am I being intentional with my time to make something worth something for someone else?

If your answer is "no," perhaps it's time to set an intention and do the work.

If the answer is "yes," show your work and get invited to do more of it.
