Ten Bad Minutes
Before you begin
Open your medium — page, canvas, instrument, dough. The only rule: make badly on purpose.
The practice, step by step — read it all first if you like
Lower the bar
Say aloud: this is allowed to be terrible. Mean it.
Make
Create for ten minutes with the brakes off. Quantity over quality; play over plan.
Do not judge
When the timer ends, do not evaluate. Notice instead: how did the making feel?
Keep one seed
Find one line, shape or phrase worth keeping. The rest was compost — honour it as such.
Accessibility
Any medium counts, including humming, arranging objects or cooking.
How long do you have?
Or read through it quietly above, at your own pace.
