Art Problems · Bonus Episode: From Treading Water to Landing Commissions in One Year with Yuko Oda · 23 Feb 2026 podcast

By the end of 2025, I was getting these emails saying the commission is almost confirmed.

So at the very beginning of 2026, I actually finally told them, this is the timeline.

If you want it done by June, I need the commission confirmed by end of January 2026.

And it happened.

Yes.

So I've often said I like playing chess, but I'm really bad at doing the checkmate part, like to actually make the sale or to get the commission.

But I think all the advice I got enabled me to make that final move.

That's fantastic.

Yes.

And the other thing I wanted to mention was at the end of last year, I started to get anxious about if I go back to teaching in the spring.

Was I going to lose my momentum?

I asked that question for the strategy call and I was able to talk to you about this anxiety that I had.

I thought all of a sudden I would go back to teaching and I would just lose this energy and momentum I had.

You gave me several pieces of advice, but one of it was to attend the goal settings workshop, which...

which happens at the beginning of the year.

So in 2026, I intended and I felt, okay, this actually makes like complete sense to me.

And I was able to like, basically do it.

And just also like writing out all the big projects that take like

longer than two weeks to complete.

And then the smaller ones that are like, just takes a day, just writing that out for the year allowed me to see like how much time each thing was going to take.
