I wanted to write about creativity, doubt, and the challenges life throws our way. We all have creative potential, but sometimes life can get in the way and make us feel stuck. Whether it's struggling with self-doubt, facing unexpected challenges, or simply feeling stuck in a rut, staying motivated and focused on our goals can be challenging. Let's take a break from the same mundane routine and make a change, even if it's the smallest of steps; these little changes can eventually lead to significant results!

Creating allows us to tap into our full potential, feel a sense of purpose and accomplishment, and break free from feeling stuck. It will enable us to reinvent ourselves, tell new stories, and unite people. It can also help restore our confidence, inspiration, and optimism.

Always remember “Never-Give-Up-Dreaming.”

When I talk about being a Dreamer, I talk more metaphorically, like Daydreaming - being lost in one’s thoughts, but dreaming that occurs during your sleep ( While it is not directly related to the creative process ) can undoubtedly have an impact on creativity. During sleep, the brain is more relaxed and less focused on daily life's demands and stresses, allowing for greater creativity and free thinking. Dreams can provide a space for the imagination to roam free and can help spark creativity and new ways of thinking. Additionally, being a dreamer can help a creative person stay motivated and inspired, as they have something to strive towards and work towards. Dreams can provide a sense of purpose and drive and can help keep creative people focused and engaged in their work. Finally, being a dreamer can help a creative person stay positive and optimistic, even facing challenges or setbacks. It can help them to see the bigger picture and believe in their ability to achieve their goals.

“Stay Persistent”, and don't let negativity or jealousy of others discourage you.

Persistence is a super strength; it can get you anything you want! With enough tenacity, your boss, peers, and even strangers will be impressed by your abilities. Therefore, show off what you can do and keep going so no one can ignore you!

The art of persuasion through repetition.

Achieving success in any creative endeavour takes persistence and determination. Consistently putting your work on display and not waiting for the perfect moment to showcase it is the key to true productivity. Establishing a daily creative routine and continuously delivering your best work will lay the foundation for a life filled with creativity. The daily practice of creating brings an abundance of benefits; it is almost like magic.

Sharing your creativity with others is crucial to growth as an artist, designer, or maker. It not only allows you to receive feedback but also opens the door to new opportunities and connections that can help further your career. Additionally, you'll build your confidence as a creator by putting your work out into the world.

To be acknowledged for your abilities by a wider audience, not just those closest to you, it's important to get those creative juices flowing and give the world a glimpse into your secret stash of ideas. Remember, success is not something that is owed to you; it's something that you need to earn. Keep going because success will eventually meet you on your journey.

Much like any expert in their field, hone your skills and become a master of your craft!

Are you ready to take your creative career to the next level? One of the best ways to do that is by setting a clear and specific stretch goal for oneself. Don't be too comfortable with whatever you know - it is important to set yourself achievable targets and work hard to reach them. Stretching yourself beyond your comfort zone will help you develop as an individual. Challenge yourself and keep pushing your boundaries to make progress.

Keep in mind that success takes time, and don't expect it to happen overnight. A good career mission is a lot like a scientific breakthrough. It takes a lot of consistent experimentation and hard work to get to that big discovery. But don't let that discourage you! The world's best writers, creatives, and innovators are incredibly productive people who are not afraid to get their work out. They’re willing to adapt and change as needed.

“Prolific artists understand that creating great work is a messy process. They don't wait for inspiration to strike before they start creating. In fact, waiting for inspiration will only hold you back. It's important to remember that you don't have to be perfect to start anything, and it doesn't really matter how good you are when you begin. What's important is consistency and a focus on improving your craft over time. Indecision is the enemy of great work, so stop thinking so much and just start creating. Consistency and focus on cumulative output is the key.”

Happy Creating.
