CPT #111: Suffering Is Optional

from Follow Your Curiosity: Ordinary People, Extraordinary Creativity. · host Nancy Norbeck

There's a pervasive notion out in the world that art requires suffering, that suffering for it makes you more noble...etc. etc. etc.  If you've fallen prey to this belief, you can relax: I'm about to tell you why it's nonsense.   If you’re tired of waiting for “someday”—which is NOT a day of the week—to get unstuck and step toward your creative dream, we should talk.   Want more tips? Check out all my previous Creative Pep Talks in this playlist! Could you leave a review? It's really easy, and it helps SO much. Thanks!  If you'd like to stay up to date on things like my courses and also get podcast and event updates, and my latest musings, subscribe to The Spark!
