Creative Paralysis

Creative Paralysis

When you think about it, it’s insane how much your able to create right now.

All the knowledge and experience you have, you could write books.

Books on relationships, books on art, books on bitcoin and connection and food.

You could paint a portrait every week. You can blog about your passion every day. You can write your autobiography and share the funniest moments of your life.

The internet is an open invitation with an endless audience searching every day for something that moves them.

Alas, it’s this endless creative opportunity that shocks us into inaction.

Do you start a podcast? A blog? YouTube channel? Do you sell your art? Do you use a pseudonym? Do you live stream your art? Do you tell no one? Do you tell everyone?

A lot of questions arise around the simple execution of something creative, so I offer this piece of advice: Create something, share it and then reflect on the questions.

You’ll quickly discover that those questions originally holding you back aren’t as important as you made them out to be.

    I love this post, Garth! I’ve been “designing” my new blog for way too long, and now I just need to start writing. I love how you write short, motivational posts so frequently. I’m inspired by it! Now I just need to figure out how to get myself to DO it!

    Go at it with thinking no one will read it at first. You’ve got some time to figure things out before any traffic starts arriving to your blog. That’s what gave me permission when I first started. ( I don’t suggest going too far back in my archives 😛 )
