My diary 2012

The year is new, fresh, almost untouched, like the crisp, white snow that didn’t fall this year. So far. I’ve been inaugurating my diary for 2012. The feeling of leather, paper, pen, ink. Birthdays. Holidays. Thoughts. Dreams. Travel plans? Not quite yet. And even though I have some ideas for what I’d like to do in 2012, I’m enjoying watching the new year unfold, listening to my possibilities, my dreams and ideas. 

Although the light’s returning, it’s still dark and drab. Grey days. Not quite the right time for New Year’s resolutions, is it? Perhaps it isn’t surprising that most people have forgotten about the mango smoothies come the end of January, and put their jogging shoes in the wardrobe by the end of February (who can jog on ice anyway?).

I’ve been digging into my inner landscape with the Winter Shift, to connect deeply with my inner life. Intuition. And the funny thing is that I’ve been doing a lot of typical resolution things, but with ease… naturally… not planned… not forced. Not thinking of these changes as resolutions. And I’m a New Year’s resolution rebel! Interesting to observe.

How is your New Year unfolding so far?  Are you a New Year’s resolution rebel too, or do you find the commitment works well for you?

Life Compass

Isn’t it interesting to see how the creative process solves problems that crop up? Sometimes solutions come to me at an initial stage, while I’m brainstorming or mind mapping, which isn’t surprising since the whole idea with these techniques is to open up, be spontaneous, and gather ideas in a non-linear form. Sometimes I find solutions during the process, while I’m fully emerged in flow, working on a design, a piece of art or writing. But just as often I find ideas, or answers, when I step away from the canvas. Sometimes I can barely cross the floor to refill my mug of tea for ideas! I’ll burst out “oh, now I know”, and rush back to what I was working on. It seems to me that there’s no right, there’s no wrong, but the process itself is needed. And at the same time, it’s important to not get lost or too particular about the process or one would never leave the drawing board and one would have trouble accessing spontaneity and intuition.

Anyway, it was when I was trying to get another cup of coffee, that this idea came to me, “A Life Compass, that’s what it is”. I was talking (to myself) about my new Goal Kits. I needed a unified logo or symbol for them, an illustration and at this moment it arrived at me, a compass rose. Because the Goal Kits are a compass to guide you, to help you dream, plan, act, harvest, recharge and make your own chart. To find life balance and momentum and navigate through the seas of the seasons.

Winter Goal Kit

The Winter Goal Kit is beginning to fall into place. It’s a practical and soulful goal kit that takes its cue from the potent dormancy of winter. The time of year when we naturally turn inwards to our imagination, rejuvenation, creativity, dreams and reflections. There is activity beneath the surface. There is work going on, but inside. Outwardly, we need to rest, just like the soil has to rest to bring new seeds into germination in the spring. During the long, dark, peaceful winter nights we reach clarity and get in touch with our intuitive side. We find our true selves, our real dreams, and when the season turns to outer activity, we’ll be guided by our inner selves. It’s during the dark season of winter, that we find illuminating light.

Purple Grapes folder icons come in rich shades of purple, famous varieties of the finest cultivated grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir, Rioja, Syrah and Zinfandel. Perfectly  matched with shades of purple and russet in the abstract Golden Ratio Autumn Wallpaper or with the wild and dreamy Montage Wallpaper.

The series of Vintage Folder Icons is inspired by vintage textures, retro textiles and Technicolor films and bring a hint of nostalgia and glamour to your digital environment. Vintage Folder Icons go perfectly together with the popular series, Luminous Folder Icons and help you get stuff done by color coding your projects.
