How To Overcome The Creative Fears?

  • Summary

  • This week Ping, Doreen and Sarah are all here and they’re discussing how to overcome creative fears. All artists have fears, from those just starting out to the most accomplished in their fields. The ladies talk about some common fears, some fears specific to them, tips and tricks on how to overcome them and, are you really an artist if you don’t have fears.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • The ladies discuss what their fears are such as the fear of not being good enough and the fear of being compared to others.
    • Sometimes our fears aren’t rational. Try to remove yourself and look objectively at the problem. Sarah talks about how your art is also a job and not every rejection is personal.
    • Ping talks about embracing fear and how, with a recent commission, she overcame her fear by just ‘taking a leap’ into the unknown.
    • The ladies talk about one of the most common fears..the fear of a blank page, and share tips on how they overcome it.

    BEST MOMENTS
    “Try not to give your fears too much power as they can control you, use them as an incentive to improve.”

    “Most of the time our fears can be defeated by simply just starting.”

    “The more you do it, the easier it will become.”

    “Instead of being afraid of the task ahead, be grateful for the opportunity.”
