This hits in so many ways. But it mostly reminds me of this quote by Andy Warhol:
"Don't think about making art, just get it done. Let everyone else decide if it's good or bad, whether they love it or hate it. While they are deciding, make even more art."
Hang in there!! Try and reframe "failures" as learning experiences if you walked away with new insights and fresh perspective.
There does come a point with creative work where you may consider pivoting, finishing it up, or shelving it. Especially if you feel like your creative growth is stagnating, you're burnt out, or it's taking more energy to sustain the project than you're getting back. That's okay, too.
It takes courage and awareness to take a step back to regroup and determine next steps. You may just need a new system to approach your current creative work, or time to mentally rest.
You're always welcome to DM if I can offer some ideas or resources. Happy to help! ♥️

Yes. Momentum is a muscle — not a miracle.
It doesn’t wait for clarity or confidence. It grows from the doing, from showing up even when the dots don’t connect (yet).
Perfection is a pause button. Output is acceleration. 🚀
"Perfection is a pause button" = I love that! It's so important to stay in creative motion.
