Creating a thing is to manifest something from within yourself. It takes energy, courage and bravery to just imagine something creative, let alone make it become real in the world.
In life, it’s so much easier to look at something that exists and critique it. A sideline critic is an easy path. Most people will have an opinion and many will be happy to share theirs about your creative work.
That doesn’t mean we need to take that feedback to heart. Filter the noise, understand that people’s motivations are sometimes just spur of the moment remarks based on ignorance or boredom.
To manifest an idea, create it so it exists and then publish it for the world to see, is pure bravery.
When we publish something, we become vulnerable and open ourselves up to criticism and if you post it online, that feedback can come through instantly.
For this very reason I’m a hype man. I like what I like, comment positive feedback where I want and just stay away from things that don’t interest me. Isn’t that the best way? Why add to the noise?
Keep creating, there are lots of admirers and your work may be helping some people get through their own lives or bring light to a slightly dark moment.
Forge on with our lives like a bright burning light. Make that thing and put it out into the world.
