Born To Skate
SELF DOUBT
90% of the time, I struggle with putting out work that's not "my best". This video being one of them. This was one of my first shoots and Twas one of them blind shoots, nothing planned out just wing it... "let's go shoot see what will come back with." Hiccups here there next thing all the excitement died weeks later. Kept the footage away, & 2 monthsI decided to put it out knowing I'm not happy with myself.
Austin Kleon sums up the struggles of being an artist. Got stuck in the Dark Knight of the soul. Had to force myself to finish it because I’ll learn something for the next time. It sucks but it’s not as bad as I thought.
Constantly struggling with self doubt.
Been reading "The Art of War & it made me see things from a whole different perspective. Steven Pressfield talks about RESISTANCE and how it's the most toxic force on the planet. Resistance tells us anything and everything to keep us from doing what we love.
Done beating myself and now I'm ready to do this again.
Back on the drawing board.
