Summary

In this empowering episode, Ceri dismantles the myth that you are not achieving enough as an artist. Something that virtually every artist that comes to her for coaching tells her is true of them. Ceri explains how to use honest reflection, and mindset shifts to put things into perspective, fully appreciate your achievements and celebrate your wins. This episode will enable you to reclaim your confidence and progress with renewed clarity and enthusiasm.

KEY TAKEAWAYS Cultivating the right mindset is key. Notice the micro wins and celebrate them - track progress to help you. Consistency is what sets successful artists apart. Comparing yourself to other artists is a trap.  The art world puts a lot of unnecessary pressure on artists.  Don´t wait for institutions or gatekeepers to validate your work. Just keep creating. BEST MOMENTS “The art world loves fashion and labels. I say, Forget it. What matters is consistent contribution.” “Train yourself to expect good things. Wire your brain to notice the progress you're already making. Success builds more success. Momentum attracts more momentum.” “Write down every single action you've already taken to move your career forward.” “There is no hierarchy. There is no right combination. There is only your unique self-made path.” “When you see it in black and white, you'll realize you're much further ahead than you ever allowed yourself to believe.” “You've already proven your resilience, your commitment and your contribution stand in that. Let it lift you.” HOST BIO With over 30 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.
