Creativity Calls

Been a very active coupla months my friends. Hence the blogging hiatus. Today is July 4th, a welcome break in the middle of a string of frantic weeks. Building a business is an freakish challenge. When we finally got serious about Monaco Lange, intention turned into action and we can't stop it now.

I've never done this before, and I feel at a constant state of unease and discomfort. We are consistently unleveled, unhinged. We're getting bigger, smarter, and wealthier (well, at least the business is getting wealthier).

There are compromises. I feel as if I don't have enough time to dive into anything these days. Distractions, complications, obligations layered on top of one another. I can't give a 100% to anything and I'm giving less-than-enough to everything. Half a brain thinking about his, the other half doing that. I'm surprised at how well I'm working it.

But days are flying off the calendar. I'm unable to savor them. Is this kind of lifestyle going to suit the artiste inside me? Kris has said, more than once, there is a latent novel in me. I think she's right. Or maybe it's a book of poems. Or maybe a painting. Or a film? I'm called to create.

And right now I'm creating a business. No trust fund baby backing us. No venture capitalist pulling the strings. No big, bad, fat cat business connections. We started with nothing more than an idea. So excuse the lack of blogging, creativity is calling.
