Following Steal Like an Artist and Show Your Work!, both New York Times bestsellers with 614,000 copies in print, The Steal Like an Artist Journal is the next step in the journey.

Each spread has one page offering a prompt or exercise, and the other blank for writing, drawing, doodling, whatever. There are lists to fill in, 10 Things I Want to Learn, 10 Things I Probably Think About More Than the Average Person. Challenges to take. Illustrated creative exercises Make a Mixtape (for someone who doesn't know you), and Fill the Speech Balloons. Pro and con charts. What Excites You?/What Drains You?

Fake it 'til you make it
I love this phase. There are two ways to read it:
1 Pretend to be something you're not until you are -- fake it until you're successful, until everybody sees you the way you want them to; or
2 Pretend to be making something until you actually make something.
I love both things -- you have to dress for the job you want, not the job you have, and you have to start doing the work you want to be doing.
I also love the book Just Kids by the musician Patti Smith. It's a story about how two friends who wanted to be artists moved to New York. You know how they learned to be artists?
"You start out as a phony and become real."
-- Glenn O'Brien (查看原文)
Marcel Duchamp said, "I don't believe in art. I believe in artists."
This is actually a pretty good method for studying -- if you try to devour the history of your discipline all at once, you'll choke. Instead, chew on one thinker -- writer, artist, activist, role model -- you really love.
Study everything there is to know about that thinker. Then find three people that thinker loved, and find out everything about them.
Repeat this as many times as you can. Climb up the tree as far as you can go. Once you build your tree, it's time to start your own branch. (查看原文)

这里的艺术家不是艺术家，steal 也不是steal. Artists 是指人生赢家，steal 其实是向比你牛逼的的人学习。 圣经说，太阳底下nothing new,你不能create things out of nothing,一切都只是重复前人说过的东西，区别仅在于你有没有听过。 So本书提出了一些能让你like an artist(...
