Self Confidence, Self-Acceptance, and a Supporting Belief System. Now you may be asking yourself.. This seems like such a fundamental and foundational pillar of creativity why is it the last one we are talking about?

I have a good reason.

It can be easy to share platitudes. Believe in yourself. Really?

For me believe often comes with success. It is my hope that by working through the homework for each of the other pillars will help you build that confidence.

Self-acceptance comes with accepting where you are now. It doesn’t matter if you are a skilled artist. What matters is that you acknowledge where you are on the continuum and move in the direction you want to go. Anyone can do anything and you can increase your creativity by believing in your potential enough to put in the effort regarding the 12 pillars of creativity.

The supporting believe the system is that of a growth mindset. Your skills and your creativity can grow. I hope that you have discovered that through the exercises. It is not easy, it takes work, but it is very much worth the effort.

And finally, self-confidence comes with practice and accomplishment.
