Show Notes:

269 - Everything Is A Nail

John discusses a recurring theme that comes up often regarding self-sabotage and comparison problems.  If an artist isn’t comparing themselves to themselves then they run the risk of creating a self-defeating mindset and attitude!

Look back at what you’ve done. As you approach your next piece ask yourself 3 things:

1. What should I keep doing?

2. What should I stop doing? (Or what didn’t work on my last piece?)

3. What should I start doing? (Or what do I need to now incorporate on my next piece?)
