Mmmm... Expression, stretching, learning and degeneration.

Things to make you go Mmmm…

"To encourage creativity by sharing more inspiration than any electronic artist.”


Three thoughts for your creativity and one on mine.


3 for you:

We are all artists.

“Gardening is a pragmatic act, but also a form of creative expression that is capable of increasing levels of serotonin, the hormone that stabilizes mood and produces feelings of well-being. Gardening is one of those glorious hybrid forms of aesthetic expression that is beneficial to both the creator and the beholder.” - Susan Magsamen and Ivy Ross


No idea is a bad idea at this stage.

“The mind, once stretched by a new idea, never returns to its original dimensions.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson


So much more to learn.

“What humanity has collectively learned so far would make up a tiny mark within the circle. Everything we all have to learn in the future would take up the rest of the space. It is a big universe, and we are all learning more about it every day. If you aren’t listening, you are missing out.” - James Altucher


1 from me

Accumulative Degeneration.

“Every choice compounds. The small, easy habits that feel good in the moment - endless scrolling, skipping practice, avoiding the hard work - stack up over time, quietly eroding progress.

Creativity thrives on discipline, not just inspiration. Swap short-term rewards for long-term growth. Build habits that serve your future self, not just your present comfort.

Because what you do daily isn’t just routine - it’s who you become.”


Until next week
