Jeff Goins the author of Wrecked, penned the Artist
Manifesto. Jeff’s words resonate
brilliantly concerning our how to be a creative force of good for the world
through art.
He
commissioned Mandy Thompson to create the visual
art to his manifesto. Mandy did a superb job and she offers various sizes of
the print through Etsy.
Mandy is a terrific artist in her own right. Her blog looks great and judging
from her artwork for Jeff, Mandy has a very
promising future doing what she loves to do.

posted; you may read Jeff Goins-
The
Artist Manifesto below:
The
Artist Manifesto~ by Jeff Goins
This is it. NO TURNING BACK. No
excuses, no delays. Time to sit down and focus. To show up and create. To paint
and play and craft. To DREAM and vision-cast.
To make all things new.
This is beauty in action. Life in
full swing. THIS IS ART.
There are no ringside seats or sick
days. Everyone must play. No second chances. You only get one shot. All you
have is today.
THE TIME IS NOW. To inspire wonder and awe. To speak up in a world fast
asleep at the wheel.
We’re counting on you. To be
creative. To AWAKEN our souls with beauty. To use your heart and hands to bring
meaning back into the universe.
Because without you we are all lost.
Life makes no sense without prophets
and poets.
We need you to DO THE WORK
and honor your call. To tap into the Muse and find your voice.
We cannot do this alone. We have
lost the child-within. That part of us content to stare at clouds — at home
with magic and mystery. We need your help to find her. So that we can dance and
laugh and sing. So that we can BE WHOLE once again.
WILL YOU GUIDE US?
If you are
a writer, I highly recommend Jeff’s blog and newsletter. He is one of the best
bloggers for aspiring writers in the
world! Mr. Goins is climbing the ladder of success and has had an impact on my
life. It’s refreshing to see a young man who spends much of his time helping
others accomplish their goals.
Jeff has
given everyone permission to share
his manifesto to anyone through a blog, Twitter, Facebook or any other form of
social media. So feel free to share, distribute, or copy The Artist Manifesto.
Better
yet, purchase a beautiful copy today!
Keep it near you to remind yourself “why”
you are an artist and “why”- what you do
matters!
Until
We Meet Again,
