Mini Saga #126 – Artist

Frank was an artist.  At least he thought he was.  Four years, nothing had worked. Concerned, his friend Jim asked him, “Do you fear that nothing might click for the next few years?” Frank nodded. “So, how will you address that fear?” Jim asked. Frank smiled, “By creating more art…”

It takes time to get good at your craft. Until you do, nothing might click. Fear that nothing might ever click will keep lingering in your head. People around you will put more fuel to that fear. The only way to overcome that fear is by creating more art. The magic is not when that fear disappears but when you can create more art in the face of that fear.
