Between the lack of consideration from society in general, the ever-growing costs of living, and the demands of adulthood, it is more and more difficult to find time and energy to create.Have you ever been super excited for a project, only to lose all motivation before you finished? Have you felt so tired that you could not bring yourself to do anything artistic? Have you felt so down on yourself about not doing anything that you started to doubt you had any talents in the first place?I know these feelings, because I've had them too! I am a writer, and all along my career I've tried to find a good balance so that I could keep writing while earning a living. It was a difficult battle. I've had day jobs in several different industries, from science to theatre. I've been so burned out at times that I didn't write for months. I've felt so low about my writing that I didn't perform well in my job. I've had so little free time that I neglected my relationships and my mental health.Thankfully, these years of struggle have taught me a lot, and I decided that I should share that knowledge and experience with other artists. This is why I have decided to write this book, The Part-Time Artist.In my book, I talk about my experience and all the lessons I've learned on my path to becoming a writer. I strongly believe that these lessons can be valuable to all of you. It doesn't matter if you are a writer like me, or a painter, or an actor, or a musician, or a designer, or any other type of artists. I know we all face the same struggles!When you get a copy of the book, here are some of the things you'll get: * An easy way to build productive habits to do more art on a daily basis* The common myth about the tortured artist, and why you don't have to be one* A step-by-step guide to build a business plan for your artistic career* The best way to set goals for your creativity* A strategy to make your day job work with your art (instead of the other way around!)* And much more!Not only that, but you will also benefit from several resources and useful tools, such as a weekly planner, a budget tool, a business spreadsheet and a FREE workbook

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Think and Grow Through Art & Music is written for anyone who aspires to be or become a professional in the field of art and music. The Author's extensive experience has demonstrated that a person who possesses the burning desire to become a professional in the field of art and music, and not only reads, yet also applied these principles, will multiply his/her greater advantage of becoming successful by ten times or more. Just as Napoleon Hill made millionaires out of scores of men and women in the past, as well as today, his principles when properly applied and followed by action, will work with any application. The author: • Includes his Twenty plus years of face-to-face interviews with some of the greatest artists and musicians who have ever lived. He also includes email and telephone conversations from those too busy to sit down for a one on one. • Adds his countless hours of research delving into the past of those who have gone before, so he might add their input and suggestions. • Integrates Napoleon Hills’ lifetime of knowledge gained by over 500 interviews with some of Americas renowned leaders used to create his science of personal success and philosophy outlined in his classic Think & Grow Rich. • Teamed up with the Napoleon Hill Foundation in Wise, Virginia, who has carried on Napoleon’s work since his passing in 1970. Together they have clearly written a modern day classic, a must read for any & all. Over 20 years of interviews and research, yielding inspiration, advice and motivation from musicians and artists too numerous to list, including: Chet Atkins, Les Paul, B.B. King, Stevie Wonder, Jerry Garcia, Chet Baker, Martina McBride, Thelonious Monk, Leonard Cohen, Sheryl Crow, Pharrell Williams, Andrea Bocelli, Bruno Mars, Mick Jones, Beyoncé, Willie Nelson, Eric Clapton, Eminem, Madonna, John Mellencamp, Enrico Caruso, Taylor Swift, Lyle Lovett, Diana Ross, Naomi Judd, Paul McCartney, Aretha Franklin, Carole King, Mary J. Blige, Jimmy Buffet, Chaka Khan, Quincy Jones, Yo Yo Ma, Itzhak Perlman, Ringo Starr and more. Faulkner firmly believes that the only limitations the reader has, are those he or she set up in their own minds. By following these principles and taking action, the reader will remain persistent, not give up, and have doors open that otherwise they would never be aware of.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a fresh approach to a common problem, this self-help guide to overcoming back pain advocates adopting the natural, healthy posture of athletes, young children, and people from traditional societies the world over. Arguing that most of what our culture has taught us about posture is misguided—even unhealthy—and exploring the current epidemic of back pain, many of the commonly cited reasons for the degeneration of spinal discs and the stress on muscles that leads to back pain are examined and debunked. The historical and anthropological roots of poor posture in Western cultures are studied as is the absence of back pain complaints in the cultures of Africa, Asia, South America, and rural Europe. Eight detailed chapters provide illustrated step-by-step instructions for making simple, powerful changes to seated, standing, and sleeping positions. No special equipment or exercise is required, and effects are often immediate.
