Give yourself permission to be an
artist. Give yourself permission to be whatever it is that you want to be. No
one is waiting to anoint you as a professional writer, musician, poet, designer
or blogger.
Giving
yourself permission will you give you confidence. It will give you a chance to
be an artist, someone who changes how we think, what we feel and how we do. You
don't need credentials to be an artist. You don't need to sell a platinum album
to be a musician. Just start being one and start creating art to change the
hearts and minds of people.
Reader’s first reaction: I am not an artist. I can’t paint a
picture.
You are an artist when you spend
emotional labor to deliver a project in a generous way.
Blogger: I
made this blog for you. Here. Read this. I hope it helps you find what you are
looking for.
Be
generous with your gift. No need to sell it for money (it’s too valuable). When
we sell our gift for money, it is no longer a gift but a commodity and when it
turns into a commodity it is no longer art.
