The Power of Taking Small Steps Towards Your Creative Goals
In our pursuit of creativity and artistic fulfillment, it's all too common to indulge in grand fantasies of what our lives would look like if we were "real artists." We dream of having a spacious studio, ample free time, and the perfect circumstances for our creative endeavors. However, Julia Cameron, the author of "The Artist's Way," reminds us that this kind of thinking often blinds us to the small, practical changes we can make in the present moment.
Creativity, she argues, is not about taking monumental leaps but rather about taking small, consistent steps towards our creative goals. Instead of rushing towards an intimidating cliff and then hesitating to leap, we should embrace the concept of "baby steps" – those small, manageable actions that bring us closer to our creative aspirations.
