“Creativity takes courage.”
Henri Matisse
"I spent too many years being ashamed about what I write."
Stephen King
Fear and Courage and Creating
“The artist begins with a vision — a creative operation requiring effort. Creativity takes courage.” Henri Matisse
What fears and anxieties are holding you back from expressing yourself more creatively?
Stephen King relates a story about his high school teacher critiquing some of his work.
King says, “I was ashamed. I have spent many years since — too many, I think — being ashamed about what I write."
Even very talented people may experience fraud or impostor feelings, and shame can feed those feelings.
Impostor Feelings Can Dampen Your Creativity
