My Rigid Thinking Monster
Just over here contemplating my rigid thinking monster as it truly does make my creativity run away!!
A few things that make it show up for me:
🔸allowing myself to get depleted, i.e. too much people-pleasing and not enough art-making…
🔸being overwhelmed and getting attached to one idea or way of doing something that I can control/know
🔸feeling insecure and, therefore, needing to defend myself
A few things that ease it:
🔸slowing down to be clear on how I want to spend my time/energy and making sure to do enough of what fills me up
🔸reconnecting to the bigger inspiring why and letting go of the need to figure it all out at once
🔸getting grounded in thigs that help me feel like my truest self (which is open and loves new ideas...)
☆★ Creative Challenge ★☆ What does your rigid thinking monster look like as a doodle? What makes it show up for you? What makes it disappear? 🤔
And one more really important question: What would you name this monster? 😀
