Today’s Doodlecam was an extension of yesterday’s. I confess I was afraid that perhaps the freedom and fluidity I felt yesterday, and the delight I felt in what I was creating, might have been a fluke.
Maybe I would never again be able to create something I liked.
Maybe I would never again be able to relax on live video stream.
Those were the fears nagging away in my head.
But you know what? It all went fine. I enjoyed the doodling. I enjoyed the commentary.
I know not every Doodlecam will be like that–this is the nature of the beast: some days will be better than others.
It’s called “being human.” But as long as you don’t take direction from those nasty gremlin voices, things turn out okay.
You may dislike some of your work, may feel frustrated at times, but just keep on going.
Look at the overall body of your work. Not every single piece is going to be amazing, but over time, the level of your work overall will rise (remember Guidepost #3 of The Creative Sandbox Way: Think quantity, not quality.) If you take care of the quantity, the quality will take care of itself.
Just keep at it. Focus on the process. Focus on the joy.
You may be amazed when you look back at what you’ve managed to create.
