Bitching My Way to a New Year
So, I bitch a lot about feeling like I’m not living up to my creative potential. I get depressed about it and feel completely sure that I will never again accomplish anything of any value. I do it about once a month, and although I will eventually begin a new project and feel good about what I create, this same feeling will once again resurface and I will be forced to confront myself and admit that I’ve once again fallen into the same old trap. Wow, that’s a long sentence, but it may have given you a clear sense of how this feeling of insecurity and uncertainty wraps it’s way through my brain and warps my sense of self. A heady topic for such a seemingly small matter. The answer itself is simple, just sit down and create.

Would it make you feel better to know that John Adams felt the same way?
