Tip of the week 💡 Affirmations for Creativity
answers to common questions, easy recipes and tips & tricks.
This week I caught myself thinking "this isnt good enough" multiple times while working on my writing and artwork. If you have too, lets pause and take a breath. Then, gently reframe it:
“I’m practicing, not performing.”
Creativity is a process, not a test.
“Every draft, sketch, and idea teaches me something.”
Turns the ‘not good enough’ into a learning moment.
“My creativity doesn’t need to impress, it needs to express.”
Art is personal, not performative.
“Perfection isn’t my goal, progress is.”
Grounds you in growth instead of self-judgment
“It’s okay if it’s messy. Messy means I’m making.”
Transforms imperfection into proof of creative life.
Try keeping a note in your workspace where you jot down the phrases you catch yourself saying, and rewrite them with kindness. You’ll start noticing patterns: moments when pressure replaces play, or when fear silences flow.
By the end of the week, you’ll have your own mini list of affirmations, written in your own words :)
