Breakthrough! I did what was I think my fourth live Doodlecam this morning (Facebook Live of me doodling on live streaming video), and for the first time I actually really liked the outcome.
Not that it’s ABOUT the outcome—it’s not, it’s about JOY (remember Guidepost #2 from my book, The Creative Sandbox Way, “Think process, not product.”) But we still like being pleased and delighted by what we create. What could be more wonderful?
It doesn’t happen every time, but the more you create, the better the ratio gets, of delight to frustration. ?
And here I thought it might take me weeks of feeling self-conscious doing Doodlecams before I created a doodle that delighted me. Nope: FOUR!
The fourth Doodlecam was the charm.
Not that this means the next Doodlecam doodle will delight me. There might be several after this that feel awkward and self-conscious.
Life is not a steady upward growth curve.
But today was lovely validation. Thank you, Universe!
