Give up... and be a scarecrow

No matter how far along you are in your career, it’s easy to lose hope, particularly if you’re “blessed” with that creative gene. Do you find yourself prone to fantastic highs and rock bottom lows with shades of grey and empty numbness in between? (Been offered a pill to fix that? Don’t take it unless you have to… You’ll really miss out!)

What you have to say through your joyful and suffering production is ESSENTIAL to this world, even if it’s only to a limited few…. even if it’s only to your child… or your sibling’s child or a random stranger; a single soul.

Make a pledge: “STOPPING IS NOT BE AN OPTION.”

You were put here to create, to express and to enhance this world with your unique angle of this moment in time. All that invisible stuff inside of you is so much more important than how you look, or your physical ‘curves and bumps.’ It’s a richness you MUST share and there’s no way to know if you’re succeeding in this mission UNLESS you keep moving forward and fullfill that destiny.

If you build it… they will come, but if you don’t.. they most assuredly won’t, so do what you do… only keep doing it. (For as long as you are able.)
