Some are successful and some are not.

I am in a position to observe so many Artists and people as they go about their lives. I see the very successful ones and I see the not so successful ones. The most interesting part is that they are all talented Artist, but some are successful and some are not.
Why is that?
Two of the greatest hindrances to being a successful are very simple things.

First, you listen to the critics and believe them, take what they say on board and let that slowly eat away at your self belief and you will eventually stop painting.
Ignore the critics, smile them off and believe in your self.

Second, you know you have to change, you know you should change, but you don't.
Read that book.
…….What if you read a book and it changed your life and your income forever?
Do that workshop.
…….What if you did that workshop and it took you to a new level of creativity?
Learn new skills, selling and marketing.
…….What if you learned to sell and it helped you to stop being self conscious and now you enjoyed meeting new people and selling them your Art?
Wouldn't that be worth changing for?
If you start to make little changes now, it will change your life forever.

What do you think, is it worth it?
The successful Artist and the unsuccessful Artist are both talented Artists.
