Creative Confidence

“Oh, you must be a creative.” What does that mean, to be a creative? When did we decide to make that a noun?

Everyone is a creative.

Some of us are just a little more okay with being in uncomfortable situations.

If you find yourself in a situation where you aren’t being as creative as you’d like, go do something that makes you uncomfortable. Break a routine you always follow. Learn about a subject that intimidates you.

If we know anything about being uncomfortable, it’s that discomfort is the mother of confidence. Each time I “survive” an uncomfortable situation I know the next encounter won’t be as bad. This is what it looks like to build creative confidence.

Try something new. Look foolish. If you survive, create more art.
