Yes, I know I spelled it wrong but the truth is, I did it on purpose. The form of the word brake I used is the noun form like when you hit the brakes on your car. You use them to slow down… to stop. This is a crucial step of the creative process. It’s time to hit the brakes and get off the hamster wheel for a little while… time to recharge and to rest. If you’re following this closely, you will even notice this is posting a day late. That was partly because I was speaking yesterday and partly because I decided when the speaking was over so was my work for the day. I drove home and spent the rest of the day with my family. After all, they are the biggest part of a better life, and time with them is a lot of what makes this whole process worthwhile.
The world will not stop turning if you take a break (see, I can spell it the right way). Take sometime and enjoy the ones you love.
