Being humble…

Artists are notorious for having an ego about their art. Which is understandable, to a point, you worked really hard to produce what you’re putting out! 

HOWEVER, you don’t want your ego to ever get SO big that you’re not open to growth & feedback. 

You’re NEVER too good to learn & grow. 

Ask yourself this, when is the last time you looked at your work? Really looked at your work & thought, “what can I do to get better? What can I do to improve?” 

It's okay to want more.

Your ego is good for many things, but it’s also not so good for things. Your ego will push you into doing things you might not have done. It also can keep you in a box because it’s telling you that you are fine where you’re at & don’t NEED anything else. 

So we are going to need you to reel in your ego for a moment & really put your work to the test. Really look at your work & ask yourself… Is this THE very best work I am capable of producing? If I were to put my work next to the BEST… how would It compare? 

Are you doing things with intention? It’s really hard to see the areas that you need to improve when you do not take a step back & really take a good look at things. 

Like we have said many times before, you can always improve. You can always grow & learn to better yourself. ALWAYS. 

The key is really being able to assess your work honestly. 

There are certain things that can help you check that ego at the door & really just set your intention to really be the best you can be. One of those things is working until the job is done. 

Start there. Once the job is done, get in the habit of telling yourself one thing you did amazing at and one thing you can improve for next time. 

You’ll be amazed at how quickly you grow when changing your mindset.
