CREATIVITY AND COURAGE

David Limrite-Artist, Coach, Mentor, Teacher

"What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?”

~Vincent Van Gogh


Creativity is not just painting a picture, it is an event. It is a powerful, profound, and monumental activity.

Approach your creativity from a place of power and courage. Pour your love into your work. Love your idea, the process and the activity. Suffuse it with your passion, purpose, intention and enthusiasm.

Start from a place where anything is possible and hope for good results.

Risks are going to feel risky. Take big ones.

Every creation is an opportunity for learning and growth. Discover new things by going beyond the old.

The only way to fail is to quit. To give up.

Don’t ever stop creating. Continue to make things every day. Do your work with perseverance, persistence, commitment, and patience.

Determine your own path.

Choose to do exceptional work.

Have the courage to start.

Take action in spite of fear.

Don't worry about what happens next. ( Not knowing is okay.)

Always be learning but remember what you already know.

Take a deep breath, summon your courage, and create.

Best,

David
