I have been so sleepy all day, but I still managed to grab a postcard and do a doodle on the couch. 😊
🖍
Bad lighting limited what I could do, but I didn’t let that stop me. I simply let that be a creative constraint! 🖍
I can’t see well enough to fill in lines precisely? So I’ll make messy, imprecise lines!
🖍
Do my gremlins approve? Heck no! But I’ve learned to disregard them, because my gremlins NEVER approve! 😂
🖍
I simply kept going, because in the Creative Sandbox it’s not about impressing anyone (certainly not my gremlins!!), it’s ONLY about PLAYING! Exploring, experimenting—“Think process, not product” is Creative Sandbox Way™ Guidepost #2, after all, right after #1, “There is no wrong.”
🖍
And let me tell you, taking even just a few minutes to make a doodle makes a huge difference in my mood!
🖍
I hope you’re making time to make something just for the fun of it this weekend! .

What did you make today?
Here’s a doodle I made during today’s Doodlecam, all about dealing with the fear of improvisation when you create your art.

Drawing Doodlebot at the end of a Facebook Live on dealing with self-doubt. Every time I do a doodle (or write, or make music, or [fill in the blank] my self-doubt gremlins tell me I’m not good enough. Without fail.
🖍
Thankfully, I’ve learned how to deal with them over the years, so for the most part they don’t stop me anymore. (Huge thanks to @tarasophiamohr, whose Playing Big course was transformative in this regard, and so many other regards, too!)
🖍
In today’s Doodlecam (as with every Doodlecam), I talk through how I deal with the self-doubt gremlins when they appear, and reappear, as they inevitably do.
🖍
Learning to dance with these gremlins is essential. They’re not going away, folks! So unless you want to live in a state of paralysis, never achieving anything, you are going to have to learn to deal with them!
