Limitations is something that we all experience at one time or another. Sometimes, though, you can take advantage of your problems and instead of thinking of your day-to-day issues as positive or negative, or even failure, you can think of it as "I am going to take this as a challenge." Today in the Studio, we watched a TED talk video about how an artist with limitations and was unable to keep on doing his 'artist style' art, but took advantage of it and worked with the best he had. Here it is: I loved how his doctor told him to "embrace the shake" and he ended up turning it into a whole series of big projects, especially "Goodbye, Art". This video has inspired me to not think of things in a black and white perspective, but as another opportunity that I didn't realize I would have had, like he did. I really believe that if his doctor didn't tell him to "embrace the shake", then he wouldn't have come as far as he has come today, and maybe would still be in his dark space from when he left art.
