Do it, see if they dislike you?

The Artist life is not about the day when you win the prize, it's about all the days in between.

There are going to be good days and there are going to bad days.

On the good days, work hard on your Art and your business, make each day pay.

On the bad days work hard on yourself.

Taking whatever has happened and working on your feelings to turn them around for your benefit.

Usually the answer is to do the opposite that you feel like doing.

Sometimes we want to feel sorry for ourselves, complain about how unfair it all is and that we are just a failure, do not go to that place where you think that there is no answers.

Do not listen to that whining inner voice going on in your head telling you what a failure you are and how you can do nothing right.

Do not get so down on yourself, just stand up and look outside everything is normal, the sun is shining the birds are singing, life is going on, the problem is not the whole world just what is going inside your head.

Do not let circumstances and your own critical inner voice defeat you, use that voice to your advantage.

When the inner voice says, don't do that you will fail, decide to do it and see if you would really fail?

When the inner voice said don't paint that painting, people will laugh at you and see you are a fraud, paint it and see if people laugh and call you a fraud?

Your inner voice is afraid and will do anything to stop you from taking a risk and doing new challenging things, it wants quiet, average, normal.

Use that negative inner voice and say, maybe I should do it.

You cannot remove the fear but you can use it to motivate yourself.

Next time that negative voice tells you don't do it, they will dislike you, do it, see if they dislike you?

You are the key to your success, you are your own champion, dominate that negative inner voice.
