Consecrate moments of your day to thanking peers and other people who impart themselves to your work. Very few of us can do our own work with success inside of a vacuum; for example, even an artist who works solely from their home studio relies on vendors for their own materials and customers for their livelihood. (Maybe I think about art too much, but who doesn't?) This may have been the reason why Vincent van Gogh only sold one painting for the length of time that his life endured. (If you have other startling stories such as this one, please tell me.) Take your own time to feel appreciation for others and the ways that we all support one another's work. I also would like to add that the only place that we can express this gratitude of our viewpoints isn't on places like a Tweet on Twitter (but I digress...I would appreciate a response to this post anywhere) (but I digress...)
