It’s true. Also I am learning that with any good, vulnerable piece — it takes an element of courage to actually post and do it.

Agreed, putting yourself out there is tough, we don't know how the world will take to it but its the brave ones, the crazy ones that often cause the biggest changes! Real recognise real right?

Yeah, absolutely. The people who need to see it, will recognize it. The people who can see art — will see the art. It’s truly courageous to be a writer. I didn’t realize you had to bleed (and heal and cry) in order to create. It’s only recently I’ve felt that feeling. It’s cool to be able to distinguish.

I feel the same way, I might not be a creative but having started my own business from scratch without any help, I can tell you its very much the same. You put yourself out there, no one gives a shit, you get put down and you keep going until what you do resonates with people. I am sure this way of thinking will lead to a lot of opportunities for you should you continue to listen to it and see where it takes you

Starting your own business is a route for the creatives! You for sure must be one! Especially if you identified with what I shared. I think we are all creatives to some degree. Some just choose to use it more.

Putting myself out there without giving a shit is the best thing I ever did. Are you on the hive blog?

Oh for sure, like any pursuit sport, art, business, its all a form of expression and something you want to bring into existence in this world. It takes time and will test you on so many levels, i know i've taken my fair share of slaps to the face along the way

Yes I am on HIVE too! I just drop in on steem to check if there are any cool cats still around these parts
