I wish I could paint and draw. But I cannot. I have no talent for it whatsoever.
This is what I tell myself regularly when I want to try my hand at visual arts.
And if you ask me, how do I know that I am not good at it, boy do I have a lot of evidence! I would show you my scratches and scribbles which are NOT pretty.
[Of course, I have never taken a class or done the least bit to gain any skills in drawing or painting . . . .]
And so here's the thing: this "no talent for art" story has hooked me in taking any action or doing anything which actually might improve my drawing skills.
And that is
the problem with the stories in our heads, isn't it? That we believe them and this belief really stands in the way in acting in our own best interests.
I will be sharing many insights and practices that can help us deal with such stories and other kinds of negative thinking.
The 5 Super Effective Ways to Manage Negative Thinking workshop is TOMORROW Morning at 11am EST [you will get the recording if you register but cannot live. If you want to attend, here is the information and the sign up link
Warm blessings
