Empower Yourself with Positive Self-Talk
The importance of cheerleaders is something easily recognized. And yet, when it comes to inner monologues and self-talk, instead of being our own greatest cheerleaders we're often our own worst critics. That negativity quickly gets in the way of accomplishing goals and realizing dreams. When the negativity is replaced with empowering self-talk and encouragement, we're able to reach new heights.
Empower Creativity Through Vulnerable Activity
By its very nature, creativity is an act of vulnerability. While many people are able to disassociate their sense of worth from a spread sheet or certain work projects, creatives often find themselves pouring their hearts and souls into each work. To offer these bits and pieces up for consumption—even among trusted supporters—can be terrifying. The idea of having creative work rejected can feel like rejection of ourselves, cutting deep and hampering our bravery to share in the future.
