Why Positive Thoughts About Your Art Are Important

If you’ve been around a while, you know that I’m a big believer in positive thoughts, especially for you artists about your art. You probably feel great about your work…until you don’t. Then your head is filled with all sorts of negative garbage like:

  • My work sucks
  • I’ll never make it
  • No one will ever buy this
  • I’m wasting my time
  • My middle school art teacher said I wasn’t good enough
  • No one ever makes any money selling art

Any of that ring a bell? If those negative thoughts aren’t hitting for you, come up with your own list of not-so-great thoughts about your work, your talent, or your ability to find success, then watch the video below.
