The Gauntlet Guarantee
Here’s a challenge from An Artist Empowered:
You must make it through an entire day, while conversing with others, without using these three common tick words: just, hope, and wish, or uttering a single cliche. I call them tick words because they are merely marking time, nothing more. If you’re unaware of abusing cliches, then your are (let’s use an apt one here) adding insult to injury.
The point of this exercise is this: prove the insidious power of social conditioning to yourself; from this insight, original work can begin.
Leave a comment, and let me know how you made out.
