You are inspired. You have the idea in mind. You sit down to create it on the first day. The second, third, fourth, 20th day comes by and it’s still not where you want it to be. You tell yourself to stick it out. Good things take time right? You’ve heard this and you continue pushing through 30 days then 60 and nothing is moving where your expected it to be.
Things played out fast and so well in your mind but it’s not working out in the real world. You give up.
If this sounds like you then you can slow down by googling a couple of famous pieces most people know.
Michaelangelo’s Statue of David
Leonardo’s Mona Lisa
Walt Disney’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
Just google how long it took each one of them.
James Cameron’s Avatar
Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool screenplay
Slow down. You have time – if your project is good in your head now it will be even better 3 years from now. If it’s 5 years from now even better. And so on.
