What Do You Get When You Put Creativity And A Group Of People Together?
(Yes, we’re going to talk about the 90-day habit builder)
The easy answer to my question is you get creatives, obviously. Creativity + People = Creatives.
Except, what if I told you (reminded you) that one of the hardest facts to believe in is that Creativity + People = Creatives because we let Creatives + Anxiety = Impostor Syndrome get in our way?
I know that may have been a bit confusing, but here’s my bigger point — for as simple as it should be to believe we are creatives, it just isn’t easy to believe. We get scared. We get in our own way. We let others’ voices convince us of the opposite.
This is why I’ve internalized that the biggest commitment I can ever make for my creativity in order to keep momentum and healthy habit flowing is to treat it like a habit. It’s a muscle that we need to hone every day, whether with our jobs or with our lifestyle.
The Artist’s Way is the book I turn to for support when doing this. I’ll actually be leading a group of fellow creatives this fall in our own 90-day commitment. We’ll work through each chapter of The Artist’s Way and stick to it. The group setting will help, but so will our belief that there’s no other option.
