“Hey, I can do that.”



Small daily disciplines are very hard to start when we are already convinced in our mind that we can't do it, no matter how easy it would be to do.
If we are convinced that it is too hard, then the thief will help us make sure we are right.
Do not let wrong thinking stop you from achieving small goals in your life.
It is not hard to save a dollar each week and that would be $52 in one year, all that is required is a little discipline.
The problem is our thinking, because we say but it’s such a small amount that it’s not worth doing but if you have no savings at all, you will be $52 ahead of where you were last year.
That is a small accomplishment.
You see its not just the amount, it’s the building of small daily disciplines into life habits and once you realise that you can do it, you may decide to increase your savings to $10 per week and then $20.
Accomplishment builds self confidence and so we can then stretch the goals and build and build.
It is amazing what you can accomplish once you get self confidence and realise that, “Hey, I can do it.”
It does not have to just be about saving money, maybe you don’t read books and you know that there lots of wonderful books out there that would greatly help you, so decide to read for just 10minutes every day, only 10 minutes.
Keep it at only 10 minutes even if you want to do more on the first day, stop at 10 minutes, then do it again the next day and the next and you will find after a couple of months and a few books that you will want to increase it to 20 minutes each day.
You see little daily gains help you consolidate the discipline and it will become a daily life habit and build self confidence.
You can apply this to any area of your life.
Don't let poor thinking keep you from accomplishing your goals, don't convince yourself that it is to hard to do, because the thief will agree with you and you will be right.
Small daily disciplines can render great reward for you in your future,

Why don't people want to pay what my art is worth?

                                               Why don't people want to pay what my art is worth? I keep reading on an artists group pages again and again the same old question, “ I cannot sell my art for what it is really worth?” This is always a question raging in the art world, sort of the never ending question. Every artist has an opinion about this and it sometimes sounds like whining and of coarse they do not want to hear any opinions that differ from the fact, that their art is worth far more than they can sell it for. Of coarse my opinion comes from my experience with Galleries and collectors and of coarse artists and you may not agree with me and that is fine and I hope I do not upset to many people but lets take a look at the reality of the situation. First lets establish this that the price an artist can ask for a painting has nothing ...

“ I wish I had learned about this when I was trying to sell my paintings.

Your weakest skill, sets the height of your success. If you don't know your best skill, you had better find out your weakest skill, because its the weakest skill that holds you back. As Artists we so often coast along depending on our strongest skills to get us through, never realising that it is the weakest skills that hurt us the most. Now I have learned what not to do, because as an Artist I never did this but after years in Galleries I wish I had, it was a weak skill that determined the height of my success. Question, “From your last exhibition or showing, what was the worst part?” Now you cannot criticise anyone or anything, this is all about you. I don't want to hear about the terrible Gallery, terrible economy or the terrible public who just didn't appreciate your work. No, no blame on anything, just talking about you. What could you have done better? As a gallery person I now sit on the other ...
