The Half-of-March Challenge inside the #creativesandboxcommunity is helping me practice #imperfectionism, because I give myself the goal of seeing how quickly I can create to the prompt, NOT how well. 🖍
This is key! Giving myself a very small time container! @carla.la.la.olson, the challenge host, suggested 5 minutes, and reminded us to use this challenge as an opportunity to be brave and vulnerable together. EXACTLY the spirit I want to cultivate inside the Sandbox! 👍👍👍
🖍
So here I am, being brave and vulnerable by sharing outside the Sandbox, on Instagram. 🖍
Let’s not kid ourselves: sharing work, especially when it’s a newer skill that you don’t feel confident in, is SCARY! That is flexing some major courage muscles!
🖍
THAT is why the Creative Sandbox Community is a Lab for women’s leadership. Those courage muscles that we flex when we create and share creative work? It’s those same muscles that we use when we ask the boss for a raise.
🖍
Or throw our hat in the ring to run for office.
🖍
Or take on ANY big challenge that requires you to step into a bigger space than you’re used to occupying.
🖍
Creative work is a microcosm of the rest of life. What we can accomplish in our creative lives strengthens us to accomplish amazing things in the other parts of our lives.
