Have I Been Here Before?
I was going to ride home without using Google Maps...
I’d finished my coffee.
I was going to ride home without using Google Maps.
I was feeling confident.
It wasn’t far.
The ride started out beautiful.
I’d never explored this part of Amsterdam.
I kept on riding.
I took a turn here.
I took a turn there.
I had a good sense of direction.
I knew where I wanted to end up.
Things started looking familiar.
To be honest, a lot of Amsterdam looks the same.
Then I got to a landmark I’d passed 5 minutes earlier.
A big traffic roundabout.
The thing is, I got to it from the same direction.
I’d just gone in ONE BIG circle.
Sometimes it feels like I’m doing big circles in life.
I’m pretty sure I’ve been here before.
This time it feels different, though.
Because that big extra loop I did gave me a bunch of skills and learnings I didn’t have the first time.
I’m different.
I’m going at a different speed.
I’m heading in a new direction.
If you find yourself in the same place ask yourself what you’ve learned, how you’ve changed, and if your destination is different.
So, what’s this place I’m in again?
It’s the start of TapTapKaboom.
It’s now a place for creatives to fire up their creativity; achieve creative success; and learn skills, tools, and techniques.
It’s not about me and what I can teach.
It’s about helping creatives (YOU) succeed.
And it’s slowly picking up steam.
I’d like to invite you to join the free TapTapKaboom community on Skool.
What have I been up to?
I remade and simplified the TapTapKaboom website.
I set up the new TapTapKaboom Instagram profile.
I interviewed Scribble Warlock in the first episode of the TapTapKaboom podcast.
I remade the Random Word Doodling book. It’s now called Unleash Your Creativity in Just 10 Days.
Big loves and hugs
