#6 DITCH THE CRITICISM AND HARSH JUDGEMENTS ABOUT YOURSELF
Vow to treat yourself like your own personal B.F.F . That inner-critic can be brutal. As someone who has spent most of their life in and around creativity in some form or other, I’ve come to realise that my thoughts and beliefs about myself plays a huge part in my ability to be creative. I’ve […]

Life is already busy enough without adding more to it. And, who’s got room for that? I often […]
