You know, when you wake up, full of energy and ready to conquer the world and you have this incredible go getting attitude?

Yeah, that’s not how it goes for most people.

At least not all the time.

Feeling like you are ready to move mountains doesn’t always happen.

I always say, “I don’t wait for inspiration. I start working and it appears in the process.”

Well, sometimes, it appears. Sometimes it doesn’t.

The point is, however, not for an inspiration to show up. The point is for you to show up.

We, for some reason, are so wrapped up with the idea that we have to create something so original, so unusual and so unique, that we often find ourselves stuck in the perfectionist trap.

We battle with the impostor syndrome, “Who am I to create anything beautiful/meaningful/significant?”

Well, if other people are capable of creating something magnificent, you can as well.
