The weird science behind creative confidence

There was just one way. I knew it would be damn hard but I also knew this was what I needed to do. Break free from the limiting beliefs, the fear and the stress that was holding me hostage.

Okay, let’s rewind for a second.

It was the day after. The day after some people told me that writing a book might not be for me. It was the day after people told me that it wasn’t as good as I thought it was. It was the day after I was told to quit.

That day was the first day of the rest of my life but I just didn’t know it yet.

It marked the growth of my limiting beliefs. I went from about 20-ish to 2000 all in one split second. There was no stopping it. The limiting beliefs just started to pile up and up and up.

It seemed that every day there was a new one coming in.

And my inner critic, it was feeding on those beliefs.

Nothing I could do about it, or was there?

At first I thought this was it… I couldn’t believe it. I was mad, frustrated and feeling anxious.

But I started to fight back. At first I fought, fists in place… not knowing what I was fighting. Myself, others? My inner voice?

I discovered how my mind worked and that gave me the first clue to the new direction.

When your mind is able to pick up bad and negative remarks from other people, it will make them your own. it’s pretty advanced neuroscience but once you hear something you cannot unhear it….

Unless you replace it with something else, something new.

This is called neuroplasticity and it works. It works so well that every single neuroscientist is working on this topic. It’s magic.

So while we know right now that neuroplasticity can change the way you think… that is another wonderful aspect that happens.

See, your thoughts determine how you feel, they control your emotions.

So if you start thinking differently, more positively, your emotions will follow.

And that is exactly what we need if we want to get our creative confidence back.

Now this is what I teach in my membership and I am proud to do so as this is something artists don’t talk about. This is something we don’t learn in school. This is something most artists, writers and aspiring artists struggle with most of their lives.

If you want to know more and join… sign up for the wait-list as I open the membership just a few times a year.
