While exploring what I wanted to share with you in our September Circle on Creativity, I was greatly inspired by the book The Book of Alchemy by Suleika Jaouad.

This beautiful New York Times Bestseller is a guide to the art of journaling—and a meditation on the central questions of life—by the bestselling author of Between Two Kingdoms, with contributions from Hanif Abdurraqib, Jon Batiste, Salman Rushdie, Gloria Steinem, George Saunders, Martha Beck & many more!

She references The Bierut 100 Day Challenge, also known as The 100 Day Project, a creative challenge where individuals repeat a specific design or creative operation daily for 100 days, originating from a 2006 assignment by graphic designer Michael Bierut to his Yale students. The project grew into an online movement, encouraging consistency and daily practice in a chosen creative field, with participants sharing their progress and outcomes on social media.
