Meditations on God

Perfectionism is the enemy of creativity.

It stifles the imagination.

Instead of helping you create more art, it paralyzes you.

It keeps you stuck, unable to finish anything for fear that it is not good enough.

But your work will never be perfect.

Perfect is an illusion.

It is a figment of your imagination.

It is an ideal created in your mind to keep you feeling insufficient and insignificant.

Instead of trying to make art that is perfect, make art that pleases you.

Make art that you are proud of.

Make art that you want to exist in the world.

You cannot make art that is perfect, but you can make art that is perfectly your own.
