I arrived in Miami a couple of days ago and have been shooting pretty much the whole time with exception of some sleep. I wasn't planning on making the trip to Miami until 2012, but the opportunity came and I couldn't say no! I kept my apartment in Minneapolis, but I'm kind of unsure about when I'll be back there... Guess that art show will have to wait a bit longer! But good thing is, I am thawing out from the cold.
One of the things I've learned to be really good at is spontaneity. This is a useful quality in many areas of life! You just kind of accept changes, good or bad, adapt to them and think of those changes as a positive and fun adventure. I learned on Monday earlier this week that I was coming to Miami for an indefinite amount of time. I would have to pack up my life (again) go straight from the airport to my agency and then be ready to go straight to a (lingerie) shoot... but I really kind of love all this! It is what it is... It's life... It's going to be an adventure... And every day is new and exciting. Life is fun like this: spontaneous.
Good thing being spontaneous doesn't have to mean making a cross country move and wearing lingerie for a shoot. It could simply mean to quit complaining or finding excuses for why you won't/can't do something that's new or different than what you're used to. It could be making more time for the someone special. It could be about accepting a challenge (or accepting in general), taking an old friend to dinner, getting up off the couch and taking a yoga class you've been putting off. Either way, physically doing something new instead of talking about it is key!
My friend Sarah Bruski and I walked past a Nike sponsored Miami Beach running club tonight. It looked fun, lots of people stretching and looking fit, so i made her sign up with me. Totally random, totally unintended, but this will be a spontaneous new adventure. She hates me right now. But, I know she'll appreciate this in the end!
